As I wind down



It's been a busy and stressful week so far, but you know, it's all good.  The challenges make us appreciate everything else right?  

I'm sitting at the computer enjoying a beautiful sunny evening and looking out onto the trees blowing in the wind.  I'm often in this spot, just to relax and observe the end of the day.  The kids are upstairs playing and I'm watching mama and papa bird at our little bird house seemingly feed some babies that have yet to emerge.  OH, Brian just spotted a doe in the yard! Overall a good way to let the stress dissipate and gain perspective.

School is winding down, so with every day the desks become emptier and we get further glimpses of school accomplishments.  Sidney and Charlie have brought home loads of artwork this week and Sid brought home her notebooks tonight.  Lots of bits of stories and pictures.  Something struck us particularly funny.  This page has the caption....Oxymoron:  Is it an ox, is it a fox, I don't think it's Goldy Locks.....and there were pictures of the ox, fox and Goldy Locks.  Very Seuss like whimsy.  

Here's to finding the whimsy in our daily lives, and enjoy, the way our kids so appreciate a great rhyme.
