Summer has just begun.
So far...
My second from youngest child Mark graduated high school...despite illness he made it! And I was proud to watch him walk at graduation. He has the greatest smile and I eagerly await what the future has in store for him
My youngest son Kevin went on a 4 day trek. He came home and said it was the most horrible thing he ever did but he was glad he did it:) others told me he always had a smile on his face and that all the girls were in love with him.
I watched my grandson Emerson play "soccer shark" this year where he ran around the field with is hands clasped together above his head like the fin of a shark. He has such a wonderful imagination, I hope he never loses it. He totally cracks me up.
His younger brother Charlie wanted to be on the soccer field with him so badly, he even learned to kick the ball by the end of the season. I love that he smiles whenever he sees me and I LOVE that he loves to cuddle and hug. I hope he never loses that.
I was also very impressed to see my daughter and her husband cross the line together in a half marathon on the 4th of July. They were even pushing their children across the line with them. I thought it was inspirational how they trained and ran together.
Mary, Mark, Kevin and I used our backyard fire pit for the first time making hot dogs and smores:)
Mark became Brandt's overnight guest in Orem after attending the NBA draft and an outdoor concert together. I loved that they had some brother bonding time...I will have to arrange more of that:)
and Mary, Mark ,Kevin and I enjoyed fireworks with all my siblings, Janet and my Dad. I love the 4th with the family, it always make me contemplate where we are as a family and where we go from here...just hoping things never change.
