sing like wildflowers

My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

It’s been a while since we ventured out to any friend’s birthday parties, but we finally did last weekend. Fun times to get together with some friends and try ice skating. I don’t recall it being this hard, tried a few times in my 20s and was not this clumsy, but after 30 minutes, all three of us were on the sidelines; cheering on friends instead. lol.

Special friend since babyhood and Ellis’ G.O.A.T. pen pal. Happy birthday T~
Mama selfies! Good friends. Our Bible study circle includes more ladies…will need a good group pic of all of us and post next time.

    How fun! What’s a G.O.A.T pen pal?

      That’s what they call each other as pen pals. lol Greatest Of All Time; it’s like a term athletes use, I think.
      It was really fun for all of us although Elliot and I had sore legs.

    After that outing, I feel like we’d all benefit from lessons. Everyone is against it but me.
    But it was a fun time to be out!

    I have been meaning to ask you forever if the kids had penpals … the reason for my inquiry is I had a serviceman during Operation Desert Storm as a co-worker’s preacher asked if each parishioner would take lists to their workplace and ask co-workers to write to servicemen/women. I took three names, just heard from one named Bill, BUT, I had a penpal while we still lived in Canada – his name was Duck Won Suh. I lost touch with him as we got older unfortunately.

      Ellis has a pen pal and really enjoys corresponding via snail mail. Elliot does not, although I’ve been trying to find a pen pal for him. It seems harder to find aboy penpal. Duck Wi
      Won suh must’ve been Korean. Same last name as ours. What a great thing to write to servicemen/women… although that seems hard to know what to write.
