A Perfect Day...

Reading to Ruby; shirt says Daddy's Girl

Father's Day Lovin'

Trying to be just like Dad

Happy Father's Day to the Best Dad in the World! Ben got to sleep in, have a yummy breakfast, enjoy the world cup & get spoiled by all of us all day long. The boys gave him an ITALIA soccer ball & the girls "gave" him the gift he's been wanting for a very long time now... a free ticket to pick out a surround sound system. Really is there any better gift than picking it out yourself? We had grilled steak & asparagus, yummy salads, and Neiman Marcus cookies for dessert. Ben said it was a perfect day & he deserves it!

Seven Months of Sweet Dreams

I think everybody thinks they have the cutest baby, but who can resist these eyelashes?!? This month Ruby's on the move, so I will check my other camera & post a video of her army crawling & chasing her brothers soon!

The Miracle of LIFE

Terra, Sophia & Jo

Sunday night I'm talking to a friend on the phone, making headbands & decide to check my email/FB before bed. Life as normal. I see a few posts from my SILS...Terra's joking around with a friend about cupcakes, Val says she got a call from Mom & Dad :(. It was late, so I tried not to read too much into Val's post, and went to bed.

One relatively sleepless night later and I wake to a phone call from my mom. She's cutting in & out & I can hardly understand a word she's saying. Terra's been in a car accident, hit head on by a drunk driver. She's stable, but will be okay. The drunk driver is in a coma, and nameless, probably an illegal alien. (This is a hot topic in AZ right now.)

Life as normal is anything but normal, I'm learning. I take for granted so many things, most especially those that mean the most to me. Life is so precious.
