While Ben was napping, the rest of us went out to enjoy the sunny afternoon. I was very taken with the monochromatic outfits that the girls had put together, Bella in pink and Sophie in green. And then Anthony was in blue for a perfect trio. I had...
Last Sunday since Dom was in the hospital and we were all going stir-crazy, the kids and I took a drive to the park and fed the ducks, geese, and a swan. It was cold and wet; but at least they were out of the house. Praying about rain On Monday...
