Summer

Well school is out and the girls are full of energy. We successfully finished the Spring season of soccer, which was quite an adventure because my husband coached the 6 year old's team, and they were busy. She played really well and he was really proud(me too). She is on her way to second grade, and has big plans to run a lemonade stand on Saturday mornings this summer. As we speak she is working on a picture of the model stand. It's actually quite creative.

The 2 year old is running around trying to do everything her big sister does, including jumping from the wall into the swimming pool. When we first got there she didn't even want to get in, then 10 minutes later she was all over the pool in chest deep water. I am amazed at how fast she is growing and how fiercely independent she tries to be. She asks, "What you do-an (doing)?" at least 10 times and hour, even if she knows. She also rides a mean tricycle.

For the month of June we have a laundry list of birthdays and parties, husband, 2 brothers, niece, god-daughter, 3 friends, lions, tigers, bears, oh my! Needless to say I haven't had much time to make plans for myself.

However, I am very proud to say that I will be at Barnes and Noble in La Frontera on the 27th of this month, so I am more than excited. The book signings have turned out to be an awesome way to meet people whose path I would probably not have crossed. The phrase everybody has a story is so true. So many people openly share stories about their faith as soon as they find out the story is faith based.

Stay tuned throughout the next few weeks, I plan to post more and include pictures from some of the signings. Have a safe and blessed summer!
