 A proud parent moment.
There's an RN in the family.

more joy with fewer things

Wish I had read this article in the 1980's.
Actually, it wasn't my kids who asked for more
it was I who gave them more.
My blog friends with young children should
definitely take a few minutes to read this.

porch sit

This morning we are enjoying our
morning coffee on this porch.


We look forward to a relaxing few months after . . .
a summer of moving from a house we loved for 35 years


We also look forward to reconnecting with our Florida friends
and searching out new volunteer opportunities. 


Then in the late afternoons we'll replace
our coffee with a cocktail 


and soon - hoping a few
friends and family will join us for a visit 
in sunny Venice, Florida . . .


The guest room is ready

We enjoyed our week together and were sad to bid farewell to our January guests.

The best way to bid farewell to 
Summer/Fall in Brockport is with 
a visit from our Vermont family
