Nature's Playground

 Brimham Rocks is always a good place to play.







Employment

Graham:  What's Daddy's job?

Starr:  Daddy's an instructor at the university.  He teaches philosophy.

Graham:  What's your job?

Starr: To be Mom.  Before I was Mom, though, I was an instructor at a university.  I taught people how to write.  Not how to form letters, but how to write books and things like that.

Rosie:  My job is to be a child.

Can't Catch Me

 I went up to Fountains Abbey with Gracie and a playmate.  A toddler-sized game of tag is always fun.





Sporty Girl

 Cami self-identifies as a "sporty."  I can live with that.

Summer Tradition


Seemingly endless rain has made it impossible to take the kids strawberry picking. But we finally had enough of a pause for Rosie to get her wish. As much as she loves picking berries she doesn't actually enjoy eating them. Luckily, not everyone in my family has that problem...

(This is probably my favorite photo I've ever taken of Gracie. I want to print this on canvas & hang it in the dining room.)

En Garde!

Two children with wooden swords at Skipton Castle. What do you expect?
