My sweeties and my tulips












































































We have had gorgeous weather this spring, and have spent every possible moment outside. In a normal day, Jack wears between 2 to 4 costumes. At this moment, he happened to be into the knight costume. Gemma wears 2 to 4 different pairs of shoes a day. I don't know if you can tell, in the picture with Jack she is wearing some sweet heals. And Frederick is my sweet boy who is content wearing one outfit a day. I also had to add some pictures of my garden. I planted some bulbs last fall, and these tulips bring me a lot of joy.

How wonderful that you have had glorious weather! Jack is so funny with all those costume changes- age three is priceless! Gemma looks like she means business behind the wheel! I'm glad your tulips are doing well!
Love, Mom

It's so funny, Cath, b/c Jack looks so much like Brennan at that age. Brennan loved walking around in a knight's outfit, too! These pics brought back great memories of my kids at this age. I think my favorite one is the 7th from the top; I love Gemma's grin!

So happy for the early spring! My lilacs are blooming, two weeks early!

Yeah for Spring!!!!

I'm so glad it finally came to Minnesota. We had gorgeous weather here a couple of weeks ago (actually it was almost too hot - it hit 80 degrees for a couple of days). But its been rainy and in the low 50's for a while. Not exactly lovely weather, but because yards are so green, and the trees have leaves and azaleas and lilacs are in bloom everywhere, I can handle it.

Your kids are so cute! Can't wait to see you all in a couple of weeks.

Love, Teresa

Your tulips reminded me that Mary Kate put up some pictures on her blog that she took at Longwood and Winterthur on Easter week - flowers are definitely good for the soul!

Mary Kate reminds me so much of you, Catherine. Her looks I think are similar to yours, and she loves photography and gardening. Your temperaments are very similar as well. I see you as a young mother and its not hard for me to picture Mary Kate in about 10 years.

Cathy, I am so glad you guys are having a nice early spring too! It has been such a blessing. I remember your kids at our kids ages so well. It is really a precious stage in life. How is your puppy doing?

Teresa, I just looked at Mary Kate's pictures. They are beautiful! She is really talented. I am so glad you were able to have a ladies' trip! What fun! Thanks for the compliment of Mary Kate reminding you of me. She is a really special young lady. We can't wait to see you in a couple weeks.
