Missing Mom...

Oh, how my girls would have loved her; and she them.

A Whale of a Picture

While I sat on the couch listening to the muffled screech of the chalk, Zoë concentrated intently on her masterpiece.  The board was turned to the side so I could not see what it was that was requiring such concentration.  When she turned the board for me to see, I was taken aback by how much it really did look like a whale!  She proudly proclaimed "I'm a very good artist."

P.S.  Poppi, nonchalantly chimed in from afar "you need water" after which she added

 the spout of blue.

The Great Pumpkins...

The pictures of the girls on the front porch are some of my most favorite pictures ever; getting bigger, but still so tiny and sweet.

Sisterly Serenades...

Dan and I both had tears in our eyes and lumps in throats as we witnessed our budding songstresses give it their all.  9/13/2014

Quiet Beauties...

Too quiet in the other room…this is what I found; working together on their leap pad :)

Birthday Party Down on the Farm...

The girls attended their friend Wilder's (on the left) 3rd birthday party; it was on a farm and the girls enjoyed themselves despite the rain :(  It was actually chilly, but they didn't seem to mind, especially when the cake and ice cream arrived.

Striking a pose...

Zoë looking cool, despite the high heat and humidity we experienced on this day in Bermuda.  The girls are sitting in the throat of a giant, green eel which is housed in the National Museum of Bermuda.

(this is one of my all time favorite photos)
