Every moment is crammed with infinite riches which are given us according to the extent of our faith and love.

Hanging on to summer




We are back to school and the Autumn Equinox is right around the corner. We aren't quite ready to say goodbye to summer yet, though. Yesterday we ditched afternoon lessons and filled up the kiddie pool.

And today we took a field trip up to Baltimore to the Science Center with some friends. We had a great time and learned a few things, too! The best part of the day was right after we left the museum, though. We spotted this great water fountain that (despite the cooler weather) just had to be run through again and again until the older kids were soaked through. I restrained myself from insisting that they not get wet because we had no change of clothes or even a spare towel in the car. They were having too much fun to care about silly things like that. The fact that they had to ride home bare naked just made the whole experience that much more memorable. Oh happy days!
