Minimum Days

This week both kids have minimum days - 8 -12:30. That means they have plenty of time to play in the afternoons. Today, they were in the mood to climb trees so off we went to the park to enjoy a very hot windy day. The Santa Ana winds are in full swing here in CA, and most often, the leaves go from green to yellow to brown. We don't see a ton of colors in this area.

I CAN

I just finished reading the book "The Memory Keeper's Daughter" by Kim Edwards. I was hooked after reading the first page! She is a gifted author in my opinion. I won't give up any of the story, but suffice it to say that I am a better person for having read it. I have heard it said that "a man is the sum of the books he reads," and if that is so, I am glad this book has become part of the equation that is me.
