labor day thoughts.

labor day - september 1, 2008

amazing how a photo can capture a feeling.
feeling brave and full of love, surrounded by beauty.
speaking to a little one who takes my breath away.
all of those kicks when inhaling fresh air.
this is one active bebe.
boy or girl? so excited to find you out.
holding you in my thoughts until that special day...
and then holding you in my arms on our "labor day."

flowers at mt. rainier -- spectacular!

i'm imagining three children hiking up a trail, following daddy.

soon she will be a big sister too.

dear opa,

we thank you for another fun and productive visit! the house always feels empty after you go! sophia just loves to say your name (looking around for you too) and ella watched out her window as you were driving away. it was a sad day for them and we talked about the many fun things we did during your visit. thank you for the projects you completed around the house. we look forward to putting the finishing touches on our antique cupboard and hanging it up for all to enjoy. thank you for a great day at rainier and dinner at whistlin' jack's -- yum. now you have moved on to yosemite and we know you are loving your time in another beautiful place.

with much love and appreciation to you!

long live summer!
