Millie Turns 2!!!


Yesterday was Millie's birthday and I could not be more proud of my little girl. Despite occasional tantrums and irrational arguments with her brother she is everything I have ever wanted in a daughter. I am truly so lucky to be her mom.

Picking Strawberries at Rogers Farm




Over the weekend we went as a family to pick strawberries. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. Just a bit of the trademark humidity in the air that Floridians know so well, rain clouds threatening but not giving anything up and a nice strong breeze. It was beautiful. The kids were great. At one point Millie said she wanted to kiss a strawberry. So after picking one she slowly put it to her lips to kiss, she couldn't contain herself and bit right in. It was adorable. As a family we collected about 10 pounds of strawberries. 10 pounds for $10. Not too bad. Later that day Joe made strawberry jam so we have a nice little stash. It was great fun.

My friend just sent me these pictures of Joseph and I think I am going to have to go kiss him in his sleep. He is so lovable and endlessly loving and affectionate. What would I do without him?
