graffiti

pilar has really taken to decorating the sidewalk these days! whenever she can get her hands on a piece of chalk she creates art all over the place.
here is a picture of the chickadees who have nested in our cherry tree!


and here is one of mateo and his great big belly.


and here is my favorite one she drew the other night in front of por que no, our favorite taqueria in town.


i hope she continues to love art as much as she does now. and i hope she continues to approach it so freely and without caution because her well runs deep within.

blessings

today we are counting our blessings that papa mick is where he is. while he is still in the i.c.u. he is making progress each hour. he is his regular wise-crack-self never missing an opportunity for a joke or pun and needless to say, seeing this gives david, his sisters and i a tremendous amount of hope. join us in keeping mick in your thoughts and blessings for a smooth and quick recovery.
