As always, my days are filled with people and places, sights and sounds, and critters and creations that fill me with joy. Here are a few from the past couple weeks.

Sharing Ida’s 3rd birthday with other folks who adore her. 🎉🎈🎉
Singing with Pam, Peggy, and Mary Kay. What a wonderful treat!!

Listening to Sarah and Ida play the “I love….” game. So sweet!

Calli the katydid (so named because Ida says she looks like a callipitter!!) who seems to live in our kitchen.

Game night with Katie, Cina, Sarah and Janene and Eric. So. Much. Fun!!

Good doc appts – weaning off 2 meds now! Woohoo!

Fun and funny meetings with clients.

No-meeting days. 😉

Our ever-changing windowsill menagerie.

Newly vacuumed floors! (Right up there with clean sheets fresh from the dryer.)

Super entertaining work chats with Sara.

Playing with Ida, who enjoys putting on lotion (“it’s so cozy!”) after squeezing it out of the tube in a rainbow shape. 🌈

Getting my hands and feet dirty while playing in the garden.

Clean hands and feet after that. 😁

Ever-improving fence-line garden. So pretty!

Pouring rain. Thunderstorms. Sprinkles. Gullywashers.

Rainbows and petrichor.

Sunshine.

Chickens!!
