From our recent night out:
Love, love, LOVE these ladies!

Sara
Almost two years ago I met a wonderful friend. There was something about her that I knew was special, even before I really knew much about her at all. As time passed we began to share our sorrows and our joys, our struggles and our triumphs. We discovered a mutual love for "yarning," as my Lena calls it, and spent many cozy evenings together with our crochet and knitting. She loves my children (and they her!) and I love hers. I know that I can always count on her and hope that she knows that I will be there for her in a heartbeat if ever she needs me.
My dear, dear friend is moving away in two short days. I will miss the nearness of her, the ability to drop in for a visit, the bright spot of seeing her at church every week, the warmth of her presence. I will not, however, miss her friendship. That is something that I will hold dear no matter the miles between us. I know that in Sara I have found a friend for life. God has knit our lives together and created a friendship as beautiful as any I've ever experienced.
I love you, Sara. I am proud of you for all that you have overcome and I'm excited for the changes that God is bringing about for your family. I will pray for you daily, knowing that God has great things in store for you and yours.
“The LORD bless you and keep you;
the LORD make his face shine upon you
and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn his face toward you
and give you peace.”

First Day!
Our big-girl second grader started school on Wednesday.
She picked out her clothes on a recent shopping trip and seems to have embraced the concept of accessorizing:
Love this girl! I am really going to miss her around here.

On the couch in the middle of a birthday party (this kid NEVER does this - thank you, Oceans of Fun!):
And the award for the most creative nap spot ever:
