Counting My Blessings...

I have much to be thankful for in my life, not the least of which is wonderful friends! My good friend Jessica organized and hosted a fabulous get together this week to celebrate the arrival of Claudia to our family. Thank you Jessica, and thank you to all my friends who came to celebrate, and to those who couldn't make it in person but were there in spirit. We all had a wonderful time, and I feel so loved!



I am grateful for fun places to take my children to. This week we went to the Aquarium. They had a special bird display where you got a stick with birdseed glued on it and the birds would land on your hand and eat.

And the new jellyfish display was really spectacular with tons of different types of jellyfish.

I am also extremely grateful for my little family, and for Claudia's first smiles...


I hope you all take a moment today to count your blessings too.

Kim, I am sad I missed the welcome home celebration for Miss Claudia. Congratulations to you and Tim and Sarah, too. We will be in town briefly on July 24th weekend. (www.esrastrust.org for more.) And Jessica is such a sweetheart to coordinate such a sweet assembly of friends. Looking forward to seeing you and Tim when we visit soon. I hope we can meet Claudia and her sweet dimples then.
