Sad News for Hinckley

http://www.myfoxtwincities.com/dpp/weather/severe_weather/family-remembers-daughter-killed-in-storm-jul-7-2011

There are no words to say. Just not fair that this happened to a delightful little girl.

My mother made it look so easy.....

Several times a day I self reflect on myself as a mom, wife, teacher, daughter,sister and friend. Did I make sure I tell my kids I love them today? Did I kiss them goodbye? Was I too hard? Not hard enough? Did I forget some one's birthday? Did I give enough positive reinforcement?  Every once in awhile I get a little gift that says everything is fine. Sophia is headed off to camp tomorrow and she just gave me a note that says " Mom, I will miss you when I am at camp. Here is a gift for you" and wrapped in tissue was one of her beloved wrist bands! She says" you can use it on the treadmill to wipe your head." Of course I teared up- how sweet to give your mom something so important to you! And then I head down the hall to see Joey building a train track for Carson to play! ( a big achievement because these two fight constantly!) I'm sure I've jinxed myself and I'll be ready to scream this afternoon. But it's worth mentioning.

Pictures taken at Olbrich Gardens

Pictures I took this morning at Olbrich Garden. If you know me at all you know I love to take pictures. Brad bought me a fancy new camera and now being off for the summer I can have some fun with photography!

Sophia's Recital at OneTrueMedia.com

Sophia playing guitar after three months of lessons! She wanted a guitar and lessons for the 8th birthday. (you can hear baby brother singing in the background because he's heard it a few dozen times!)

The Hopkins Roller Derby!

Yes, Yes that is Carson in his big sister's old roller skates. They are pink and princess- but he spent the whole time digging in the puddle for worms!

Still digging for worms!
We love to roller blade in the circle in front of our house. Great practice for hockey season!
