March Milestones!

It's been eventful during the past few days.  Ella had celebrated her 1st Communion Milestone on Sunday afternoon and the James and Claranna had their Spring Piano Recital.  Both events were very special to us as we feel very grateful to be able to guide and support our children as they grown in their Faith and talents. Ella shared her Communion milestone with cousin Bryce and that made the day very special for Grandma and Grandpa.  The kids are anxiously counting down to Spring Break which begins on Friday.  We need Spring to come along with the break.  Our yard is mostly still filled with snow.   The kids are tired of snow and sledding.  They are ready to bike and play soccer and baseball.  I would like to get the windows open and air out all our germs!  Our house is filled with a sad chorus of coughs and sniffles. I'm looking forward to the sunshine and warm temps that have been promised for this coming Sunday! Enjoy the pics!

Deep Thoughts from Claranna

Claranna (upon looking out the window and seeing more SNOW falling):  "Hey, Mom, I think when it is SO cold, little bits of cloud fall off of the clouds and then they go to the ground.  See?" 

I love the world according to Claranna!  She makes me smile all the time.
