VooDoo Donut. Jackson played soccer right next to this famous PDX donut shop so we had to go.
Not pictured: endless loads of laundry, the daily afternoon drive to Sean's bus stop, to swim practice, to Jackson's soccer practice, back to soccer, back to swim, keeping Lucy fed and exercised or she'll find things to chew on (mostly toilet paper)....I could go on. I feel like a blog is a place to share our high points but then it doesn't fully reflect our lives with all the worry, grumpy days, school struggles, etc. Overall, things really are good. But it should be noted that the angst-y moments aren't depicted here. I'm not sure what those photos would look like anyway. Could be interesting. I could start with photos of the boys rooms in the natural state(!).
Maybe the blog is a good reminder to focus on the happy moments because that's truly what gets us through the bad days. |
