In one of those moments of pure brilliance, I took a walk today at a local battlefield, enjoying the sun, the wind and the trees. Usually, when things are overwhelming, I head out to be with nature. I have a “spot” on the Potomac that I have sat for hours, thinking, screaming, crying, laughing… accepting. Not necessarily in that order. Its actually the only “spot” I’ve found in Stepford. There’s something about the water (note to self: research Potomac River)...

Because she’s mean. N8V Running runs like the wind! Ever planted a Moonlight Garden? LadyHawk has. HippyMom also wanted to mention that there is a kick-butt cooking series going on this summer. Skunked! Spectacular Me gets Skunked!
Its the time of the year when I scramble around to make sure everyone’s eyes, teeth and other weird body parts are where they should be. Dental appointments with four children are not on my top 10 list of things I want to spend my time doing, so this year, I opted to split the pain between two appointments – girls vs. boys.
