Well the past few weeks I have not made it here to post my day book.......summer is in full swing and I must say we are just too busy enjoying these days! Filled with swimming......sun and the whirring of the air conditioners as we battle the heat! I also started going to a bible study on Monday mornings and we have to be out of the house by 9am.......it's all good!! So i think I might do an abbreviated daybook on Mondays if I get a chance but if not I am not going to beat myself up about it!!

~Noticing God's glory

hot.....it has been really hot and the plants are beginning to look a little weary of it.....we had an amazing storm blow through on Sat. in the matter of minutes it went from this

to beautiful sunshine again.....the clouds were amazing!

Stop the clock........this one is getting big way to fast!! She struts around here with her hands on her hips looking oh so cute.....she is babbling all the time now and Daddy is ready to kick her out of bed......she likes to push him to the edge during the night....how can such a little person take up so much room in the bed?
