Centering Reunion

We had a Centering Pregnancy reunion last night. Four boys were there and the one girl didn't make it. It was really fun to see all the little babies.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter. Thank God for Christ dying on the Cross and shedding His blood to pay for our sins. Thank God he conquered death and rose again. Happy Easter.

4 Weeks Old Today

Henry got a 4 week birthday present in the mail today from Mishelle, Jason and family in MS. You can see the rattle slippers in the picture from today. They are so cute along with everything else he got!

Henry went to Moody's Diner for the first time today.

Henry passed out and the flowers Dave got me. Henry can move all over the table on his stomach.

9 Months



It doesn't seem possible I could live nine months without seeing or talking to my brother, but God is faithful to give us His strength and hope in the valleys of life. I can't say that I miss him any less or the idea of not seeing him for a while has gotten any easier, but our reunion in heaven grows sweeter by the day. Thank God death is not final. Dave says Vinny's up there mapping out all the cool places and meeting everyone so he can introduce us when we get there.

Easter is approaching and it's the last time Vinny was home in Maine. He was wearing a blue suit he had made in Afghanistan and was so proud of it. I have that suit in my closet now.

Love and miss you Vinny!

Evidence

Spring in Maine is like the mountain lion living east of the Mississippi - you know it's there but you have to REALLY search for evidence. Some people don't think it exists, but I went out looking for it anyway. Enjoy ~

This is our walk in reverse -


the harbor path is no longer covered with snow

Harbor beach is still empty

the river is raging

floats are getting ready to go into the harbor

boats are too

the floats are starting to stink from the warmer weather

Harbor is still quiet

melted snow banks reveal broken fences

the village is sleepy


green grass??!! what's that?

rain and melting snow means lots of water

more water and mud

more water and mud

Flowers Yah!
