The swim towels have been gathered and being washed, the dishwasher is running with a full load of breakfast dishes (again) and the house is quiet, and I'm in nostalgia-land. As I have seen my mother do countless times through the years, when the family and friends have left for their other destinations, I am now doing! How odd, 30 years later I am doing for my grown children and soon to be grandchildren as she has done for me and my children, creating memories, that I hope too will carry into my grandchildren and great grandchildren. As I see in my mind's eye (don't you love that phrase) my mother doing, what we call, puttering. the picking up and reassembling the house which has been home for this short time.
We have enjoyed a brief visit from my extended family. And as always, too quick and too short, but how we savor our times together. Brett and Emily, thank you for coming and sharing your life with us! and oh yeah Trerex! how do you spell his name!? Photoging, swimming, laughing and of course eating!! Great times!!
We love you and look forward to our next time together! And Em, we are waiting for your blog!
