1) weather always tops my happy list when temps reach the 70s! I wore shorts and a tee for my long run Saturday morning and still got hot. It was awesome.
2) good reports. I've never had a bad report from the school about Corbin. I find it hard to believe he is so well behaved, that I giggle to myself with joy every time I receive a notification in the class dojo app. Always thumbs up and gold stars. This also causes me to wonder what I am doing wrong at home to create a polar opposite environment so much of the time. Since I have no answer for that question at this time, I think, for now, I will bask in the descriptions: "On task", "quietly", "following directions", and "helping others" being used to describe my boy. I'm so pleased these behaviors are exhibited at school.
3) 44 candles. Or 4 and 4 candles :)
"oh somebody's had a birthday, our little Kasey dear..." Thursday we celebrated Miss Sunshine with a couple other gals I visit with not often enough. Bonus? Best bacon cheeseburger I've had in a looonnnnng time. Perfecto. So is this girl. A true and perfect example of everything a good friend should be.
4) move over Princess Leia buns. Quincy ran outside sporting this look and shouted, "I'll be Rey!"
5) I know the photo is a bit contraband, but I couldn't resist snapping a silent shot of our peaceful pew on Sunday. Maybe all of the reverence practice FHE lessons are helping. Or maybe it's because we were seated next to the stake president ;) but a reverent spell fell over the Willy kids and lasted almost the entire meeting.
6) naptime circus. Soren reminds me of the pharoahs of ancient Egypt, stuffing his tomb with all the essentials for the afterlife. When he settles down for nap, he packs his circus tent with all sorts of odd and fun treasures: giant playground balls stacked precariously overhead, a fuzzy pink unicorn, his Spider-Man beat, the rocket pillow, and today he dragged his scooter indoors and down the stairs and added it to his little slumber tomb. Rest well, tiny King.
7) she shall climb mountains.
8) Q's library book choices always include a cookbook.
9) my nephews Parker and Zachary scored the only two (and winning!) goals in their high school lacrosse game, yesterday. I wish I'd been there to cheer them on, and also to join the chatter in the bleachers. I watched the video my brother in law posted about 5 times, because the conversations and background voices of my family were so happily familiar.
10) one of "my beehives" just returned from her mission in Chile, this week. I love updates on how those lovely ladies are doing, 8ish years later :)
Speaking of updates, our old neighbor received her YW medallion on Sunday. It seems like yesterday when Jenny would send 5 year old Kirsi down to play with Reese after Quincy was born. Way to go, Kirsi!
11) Gringo Fiesta is upon us!
12) Rhea lanas. Since I missed the last one, the work was mostly done this time.
13) preschool goodness. We mailed adorable letters this week off to family members all over the country.
