I can see clearly now!

Today's highlight: clean kitchen windows.






With the sun shining through this morning and the breeze blowing through the open doors and the birds singing, I was happy!

It's birthday time for you!

The kids told Nate that he needed to make a wish as he blew out his candles. Nate said that he wished for fewer candles on his cake. As the kids were removing the candles Isaac said, "Dad, you got your wish! There are less candles on the cake now!" I got him the complete Calvin and Hobbes for his birthday. He was actually surprised. (I think I am getting better at that. I actually got it before Christmas and have been worried that he would find it before I could give it to him.) It was a good day. What more could you ask for?

It begins

Soccer season.
For the next 10 weeks
Three practices a week
Games on Saturdays

At least he's serious about it.



Isaac is a great defender and does a great job of listening to his coach. I think that this might be his thing. I used to play soccer as a kid too and was thinking of joining the women's team. But they only play on Sundays...bummer.

This morning was a bit chilly and windy. The girls were snuggling up to get warm.
