Pecky, the best friend we never had

Someone found a dead bird in front of the house and the kids were pretty distressed about it.  In short order they had found an empty box, put the bird in it, and decided that it must be buried. They also decided that they needed a gravestone, so Jenna painted one and after they buried the box in the front yard, they put the gravestone on top.  Gone, but not forgotten!  ♥️

Family Stories

I can't remember what I was reading, but I lamented that we didn't really have family stories.  The kids disagreed with me, and since then have pointed out every time one of our stories comes up.  I've decided that I need to write them down as they come up, so that I can make a collection of our stories.
