Smiling, Sweaty, Tired Kids

Today was a flurry of activity:

Soccer Game, Football Game, Dance Recital . . . Smiling, sweaty, tired kids. I love my kids' "live large" attitude. They truly both give it their all, and it is joyful for me to watch. At our local town's Catholic Church community festival, Bremma had her dance recital. In between her performances, we shared a delicious, authentic Mexican pork taco. She took a bite, closed her eyes, and with glee slightly bopped her head to her own little rhythm of "my, oh my, this is GOOD!"

New Violin

Turin said this today: "Mom . . . I know you might not believe me, but getting me this violin is better than getting a million dollars."

Sweet boy.
