179|366..."And then, some morning in the second week, the mind wakes, comes to life again. Not in a city sense—no—but beach-wise. It begins to drift, to play, to turn over in gentle careless rolls like those lazy waves on the beach. One never knows what chance treasures these easy unconscious rollers may toss up, on the smooth white sand of the conscious mind; what perfectly rounded stone, what rare shell from the ocean floor. Perhaps a channeled whelk, a moon shell, or even an argonaut." ~Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Gift from the Sea #macefamilysummer, #cm_phonepics

167|366...I love it when our oldest works with the younger boys. He started playing catch with Will while I was making dinner and he ran in and said "Mom come see William. He can throw the ball to me without bouncing now!"

Eli swinging before school this morning. By the looks of his feet we may need to force him to soak in the bathtub this evening. This kid loves running around barefoot and it looks like it's taking a toll on his feet...

161|366 {Portrait}...

I rarely get to take portraits of our oldest so I bribed him this evening. As we were walking back to the house side by side I realized he is just inches away from looking directly into my eyes.

Spring Concert...

Micaiah played the snare drum during the Spring Concert.  See videos below.  He was also asked to accompany the honors chorus (his part starts around 40 seconds in).  Enjoy!

An O'mazing Night...

With my little man at the ballpark. I had to convince him to leave. He led the crowd (around us) in some chants, got to see the O's bird, eat ice cream and go to the very top to watch the game for a couple of innings. I had just as much fun as him!  And the O's won!!!

155|366 {Inside}...

155|366...This stopped me in my tracks on the way to the gym this morning. The rain, the bending, the new bud about to burst forth...Such beauty. Many of you commented on my last post of #sweetharperrose. What I didn't share is that over the weekend we began a conversation about her aunt that she never met. Sweet Kelsey...that passed away at 16 (over 11 years ago). It ended with most of us in tears. 💗 "Don't be ashamed to weep; 'tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us." ~ Brian Jacques
