I don’t remember what I did with my time before these rascals made me a Tanto. 

I’m so blessed to have each one of them in my life. I love the crazy ideas they come up with, I love the silly things they fight about it, I love the way their posture and habits change over the years. 

There is nothing so special as watching growth.

Gi Gi would not be thrilled to know this photograph was posted on the World Wide Web.. First because, like her BabyBecca (yours truly) She has never liked a photo of her self these last 20 years. The second reason she would hate you seeing this photo is because it is document proof that she threw and Ace. 

In the long line of Rummy playing women in my family we have only one cardinal rule. 

YOU ALWAYS HOLD YOUR ACES.

Eyes already alert, mouth puckered and fists clenched, she looks like she can hold her own around the brothers just fine.

Three days old and there’s already fire in her eyes!

Back in Wisconsin for a family weekend meeting Evangeline. My mother’s garden patio is one of the most special places on this green earth. I’m so honored to get to sit in the natural beauty she fosters.

This is a little sneak peak of my second favorite thing that happened on July 24th. First and foremost Jig and Christian got engaged!! Yahoo and congratulations to you lovebirds. (you can see their family celebrating with smiley eyes to the right). 

Second big piece of news is that my darling niece was born safe and healthy this evening. 

Great day to be alive.
