Don't let your dreams be dreams..


Trenton is "mowing the lawn". I do hope, that you all, can use your imaginations here. Can't you see it?
I remember being a kid and make believing I was doing adult things. Oh, the days of fairy tales and playing house. They pass by so slowly as a kid, but then one day it seems like you wake up and find that you are no longer a kid and fairy tales are simply... tales. When I think about that I just want to let Trenton be a little kid just a day longer than I remember. I know I cannot change the course of life and growing up, but the days of make believe really are where it's at. I guess as adults we do it too...it's just called dreaming. I hope Trenton grows up to be a dreamer. To dream big and never be discouraged- I hope that he chases his dreams, and maybe even makes believe with his kids that a dolly is a lawn mower.

Happy Birthday Karina- oh ya and Happy 4th of July





As tradition goes we all went canoeing at Sparks Lake. I have to say, this is one of my favorite traditions! I love, love, love canoeing! I was not all that great with my camera....I didn't even get on picture of anyone unless Trenton was in the frame. Next year I vow to be better! Here are a few pictures of Trenton and his Granny and Papa!

Randoms from March through May





Life is sweet

Life is sweet. Sometimes bittersweet, but really it is mostly sweet. I just have to take a second look. Three year old boys really know how to take the adult perspective and flip-flop it upside down. Trenton shows me the sweetness of life daily.
I am blessed. Beyond what I deserve. I have amazing family all around me, friends who would do anything for me, the most wonderful boy, a God who loves me-despite me- and privileges beyond. I can't say that this life isn't filled with challenges, but if I have these things I know that my life is sweet. Each sunrise, sunset, rainy day, helping hand, encouraging word, hug, kiss, snuggle from the dog, laugh with friends, good food with family, and of course crazy dance around the house with my three year old (like no one is watching) reminds me that this life is good. I hope tomorrow I am reminded again...and again, and again.
