I’ve spent days shedding a few happy tears while pouring over old photos and making edit after edit to finally get these just so.

Then came the plague of ants. They came no one knew whence, in great armies… and the housewife and cook were pestered to desperation by them. But the philosophical people are reasoning that the little ant is less bothersome than the fly or mosquito, that he is an excellent and ever-industrious scavenger, and that he [...]

I’ve been stuck for a couple of minutes, but nothing like this.

Beautiful, surprising, with just a splash of silly. Our adorable little girl has become a glowing, capable young woman. Seven-year-old Joel was expecting a brother the day Jenna was born, and when we announced to him that she was a girl, he thought we were April Fooling him!
