Joy comes in the morning

Even though we miss Father Jerry dearly, we know that he is happy, and wants us to be happy that he is in a better place. So in honor of him, here are some pictures of Thalia that I know he would have loved.
this is Thalia's new pool. She loves sitting in it, but is very particular about what toys can be in there with her.
after the pool, we had spaghetti and meatballs. even though she is 2, she still can't seem to get the food only in her mouth :o)

Thalia's New Hobby
when we were in michigan, gamma gave us some tomato plants. after nearly killing them, we finally got around to planting them in our barrel pot. Ms. Thalia was all too excited to help, in her "princess gloves"...pink gardening gloves with the Disney princesses on them.
of course she insisted on doing it herself. so she poked at the dirt, and then helped dig holes for the plants.
oh, that reminds me...i have another picture too. anyway, here is our little green thumb, with her poor wilting tomato plants. after the deluge of rain for 4 straight days, they are looking much stronger and perkier. i'll post more pics when we get back from new mexico.
here's the other picture. thalia and i walked up to Ace on saturday morning and she helped me pick out a basil plant. She held it the whole way through the grocery store, and when we got home walked around holding it like a baby. it was her basil! such a funny girl. so now the basil is planted with the tomatoes, and all we need is some fresh mozzarella for a great salad! :o)

more adventure pictures to come. with father jerry passing away, and a lot of announcements and stress at work, it's taken a lot of energy just to get up every day. now that i am feeling better, you get lots of pictures :o)

much love and more sleep,
c, c, and t
