The storms came and went and thankfully, all was okay at home and on the lake. Papa Goose's 12 ducklings are all fine too! Summer Lynn came over for a visit yesterday and of course she is instant sunshine! She LOVES books and that is the first thing she does when she comes over is to get her favorite books and read them out loud on the sofa. Love her sweet voice so much! I need to record it ... I am so bad about videoing things. Marley sleeps most of the day now, but he has moments when he prances with his bone and runs around a bit. Sweet sweet boy. These are his days ... his precious days. All is clean at Daisy Cottage and that is a good thing. ;-) I got some painting done and that's also a good thing. And I made lasagna last night. There is nothing like a clean home and supper on the table with love gathered 'round, is there?
When we were playing out front, Summie asked to go to her Choo Choo's house. That's her great grandmother's name that Shawn gave her when she would come visit on the train when he was a baby and it has stuck every since. I said that we could and then she said ....
"I want to go to Choo Choo's house because I need to hug her."
And off she went. And hug she did.

So many blessings to be thankful for each day. Thanks for sharing and reminding us to be mindful and thankful.

Oh, Summer Lynn reading on the couch all the children's books. What a special moment, indeed. That picture is such a treasure. And off she goes to Choo Choo's house, which is a sweet picture too. :)

Oh precious...Choo Choo surely appreciated the hug and needed to give some back, I can imagine. Suddenly, Summer looks so tall and long-legged as she strides down the path. Glad that you folks are safely through the storm and the excitement of it.
