YAY! Tis the season of mommy's joy!
In so many ways this is better than Christmas.
I love swim season. The kids are entertained and the sun is out.
We spend time with friends and make new ones. It really is the best time of year for me.

Marcus is so happy because he has a new "old" friend.
Ely Cooper-Leavitte was in his preschool class in West Salem, and their family is building a new home here in Monmouth. We are THRILLED. Especially Marcus and I because this is a Cub Scout we will have in our troop!

Did I announce I get to pull the yellow shirt out of retirement?
Another yay. I will be over the wolves and bears. I am so excited. And Marcus is too.
