We are driving down the road and Freda says, "Everything is goin' past us. The moving stuff is behind us now. It's where we used to be."

excellent...

Wrapped in her Glinda blanket, we sat on the back stoop and watched the hail and thunder and lightning. It was great. We talked about the little ice cubes. We waited for the flash and hid when it roared. Freda had a pad and pen and made a list. she asked my 'numbers' last night (how to spell my name) and she wrote CHA then got hung up on R. 

excellent...

Hovander Homestead

We live 10 minutes from Hovander Homestead.  Really neat and beautiful park. Freda had been worried about Simon all week and we finally got to meet up for some playtime. We fed some ducks and turkeys and played on the playground and took a walk to the river. It was a beautiful day as the Northwest pokes it's head out from it's long winter nap. 

Freda is getting so tall. And she can climb fences.

It's sunny! Hurry! To the park!

Birthday with Friends

We went bowling for Freda's birthday with friends. Before we started, we had a man down...read the report here. 

He's a champ and we love him like our own. He's already chasing the cats and wearing it like a badge of honor.

Three Years Ago Today

Happy 3rd Birthday Freda Lucia. 

You have an uncanny eye for beauty like your mother and drive of your father. You have the face of your mother and the expressions of your father. You have the strength of your mother and the bravado of your father. You have the grace of your mother and the power of your father. You have the compassion of your mother and the caring of your father.  You have the logic of your mother and an overpowering intuition of your father. You throw like your mother and dodge like your father. 

You have the undying, irrevocable, indelible, everlasting love and admiration of us both. 

We love you more than "...the sun and the moon and the stars in the sky..."

p.s. I Still miss yesterday every single day.

Swimming Lessons

Freda started swimming lessons today. I can't wait for the report...she was so excited to go this morning and to see Jeremy the swim coach, who she calls 'Wormy'. 

Reason #675, why we have babies.
