I had true motherly bliss today. My three year old put all the dishes away from the dish washer, all by herself, And in the right place! This is becoming something she really loves to do. Today was a new one though she LOADED the dishwasher. ( a few breakfast dishes) My inner conversation was, as I was helping the others with their writing, to tell her that "now is not the right time, get down," but I enjoyed watching her be so busy that I wondered who was having more fun at that moment me or her. How sweet sweet it was! I'm amazed. I think I have totally underestimated the capabilities of a young child. Maybe she is ready for the rotation?
Bliss- to rejoice, to exult, to congratulate, to applaud; to rejoice. The highest degree of happiness; blessedness. - 1828 Webster dictionary

Sisters trip to Globe

I just Love Families! What would we do without them? I'm so grateful for mine.
We work, play, cry, laugh, sing, learn, and spend time together. When I look at this picture of my Mother and her sisters I can't help but think of the memories that my four little "girlies" are creating together.

My Dear Mother is third one over from the left. I want you to know that She is still as Beautiful (and stylin) today as she was back then. She amazes me! I Hope you had a Happy Birthday Mom.

Here are my sisters and I still playing, laughing, crying, sharing, antiquing and gaining strength from each other. What an incredible weekend together! It was hard getting there with all of our busy lives but sweet to know that we are all still workin on creating some memories that will last forever! Thank-you to all the hubbies, children, and grammies for supporting us and helping make this trip possible for us.

Hhhhmmmmmm.
