just a few more photos from last weekend...

After the Easter egg hunt last weekend, Audrey demonstrated her newly discovered somersaulting ability.




JoJo and Oscar came into the room with all of us and put on one of their shows, which Stu captured, a click at a time. Towards the end of the clicking, Jessie asked whether or not somebody should be putting a stop to the game instead of taking pictures...



And these are photos of some of the few moments when Janey shed some tears and allowed me to be the one to comfort her. Such a good feeling for me to be the one person (other than her sweet mom) that this precious lass looks to for a safe place during loud, family parties.




If only it could be so easy to soothe everyone's feelings.

You and Joey have both shared in the last two days holding a little one and giving comfort...

Your last line touched me deeply...

Find a quiet moment, close your eyes, and snuggle yourself into the heart of peace... seeing you as the child now, instead of the adult.

Comfort really can be that easy!

I think the cat and dog game really needs the sounds to make it more understandable.... At least I can hear those noises in my head :D
