Not flesh of my flesh
nor bone of my bone
but still miraculously my own.

Never forget for a single minute
you didn't grow under my heart
but in it!

Gabriella's New Swing Set

For Gabriella's 2nd Birthday, Mama, Dada, Grammy, and Grampy bought Gabriella a new swing set (early birthday present). Building the swing set was the most generous gift because it took Ken tons of hours to complete. Thanks so much, Ken, for all of your hard work! Building the swing set seemed to be the never-ending summer project, but Ken finally put the finishing touches on it today. It is a monstrosity of a set and seems like it takes up most of our little backyard, but she should have years of fun with it, so it is worth it!

Getting fancy!:

Many, many thanks to Ken for all of his hard work in building the swing set!
