My Glorious Pear Tree

All summer long we visited her. We talked to her. We begged her to be stronger than the late frost. We checked her progress. We rejoiced on this day . . .the day the pears were ready.

Oh, yes, this tree is so worth that kind of attention.

All My Babies . . .And Matt

Aug. 5
Age: 8 weeks

These are my new favorite pictures of all the kids together. We were all in the pasture watching Uncle Matt fly his plane. I love the messy hair and dirty faces. And the fact that Faith is sporting her swimming suit and her newly, self-cut bangs.
