Heart Knows

I have been so busy that blogging has fallen away.  I wrote this poem recently and I have a little time and enough motivation to post it and do a Life with Boys update.   Summer has arrived; the kids are out of school, I am finished with work, and we are all now in the midst of art in the barn - summer camp in my back yard.  It remains hectic, but the end is near.  In two weeks I will be finished with my camp commitments and we will then be on vacation.   I have been longing for this break for many, many months.  This entire family is ready to play, to relax, to be alone   together.     Heart knows  eyes soak  family.  

Summer Fun Lists

 

Stumps

 Obviously one of the coolest things you learn in 4th grade is how to make the shortest, sharpest pencils possible.  I found these among the items Anders brought home on the last day of school this year.  

Friend Groups

Almost Summer

Nothing like starting the summer with a little fun at American Flatbread in Waitsfield.
