sneaky sneaky!

man, it's august! the 1st slipped right past me, and here i am, already breathing on august 2nd! this has the makings of an excellent month: my parents are coming to visit, our 13 anniversary is this monday, the leadership summit (remember? with kirk franklin and marcus buckingham?) is next weekend, i am going to see mark on the next weekend, then it is the first day of school! phew! talk about a lot going on! all the good stuff of life... although, may i put on my "mom hat" for a moment and point out this is kyra's last year of elementary school???? what the heck!?!? how does that happen?? i am still young, right?! :) i am fully unprepared to discuss the middle school things... eep! boys and puberty and all the rest.... oh dear.... i am somewhat relieved that she is the oldest though. it will be easier to cope with her than with meg, who is lovely, but fierce already at the tender age of 7!

anyhoo, welcome to august! suck the marrow from the waning days of summer! burn your shoulders, eat watermelon outside, make a last trip to the beach, sit on your porch and watch the fireflies bob in the grass...
