I am joining Soule Mama for {this moment}...with a few words; My two have been playing frequently with the big wooden blocks Mike had intended for the firewood pile. They have been made into chairs, stepping stones, a stage, a balance beam, and more. Here the two are, pausing from a game with them, big sister reading a book to her little brother.
Welcome, April! Looking ahead, April is shaping up to be a very busy month. I am putting out a little extra effort to get some things done, complete. I can already see I will be offline a bit more this month, because it is spring and I want to be outside, because my best friend will be visiting with her 3 girls from Alaska, and because my brother is here. I want to spend time with all of them! I don't want to leave this space empty, so for April, I am going to sprinkle my regular kinds of posts with a heavy dosing of Lyrical April posts; a photo and song lyrics that have touched me in some way, relevant to what is going on in that moment.
Feel free to join me! Happy weekend!
