Veggie Soup
Last week my sister went to the grocery store and loaded up my parents refrigerator with tons of fresh veggies. As soon as she got everything put away, they ended up taking my mom to the hospital. Today after visiting my mom, I decided to save the veggies and made a giant pot of soup. […]
Miracle of Life
This morning my dad and I were about to get in the car to head to the hospital when we noticed some people walking in the driveway. It was the man who helped my dad when he fell last summer. He was walking with his wife and their grandchildren. He asked my dad how he […]
New Growth
My mom, dad, and I decided to go back up to the cabin today and get out of the heat. There was a lot of traffic and we seemed to have more stops than usual, but we finally made it. We noticed how green and lush the meadows were. From time to time we could […]
Flicker
It was a beautiful day in the mountains today. I took a short walk with my mom and a long walk with my dad. We took notice of all the flowers, bushes, and trees blooming almost as we watched. We walked down to a creek at the bottom of a hill where the forest floor […]
My parents and I headed up to the mountains today. The recent rains – and even snowfall – transformed the usually red and brown rocky hillsides to shades of green as the trees and grasses sprouted. In some places with the sun shining on them, the leaves were literally glowing. Later in the day, my […]
Wild Wildlife
I asked my son how he wanted to spend our day together today. He decided to go to the zoo. Even though we have been there several times, it is one of his favorite things to do. The weather was beautiful and the animals were more active than I have ever seen. First, we had fun […]
Royal Gorge
When my son and I made arrangements for him to visit for a few days, I wanted to do something fun that my parents would also enjoy. They hesitate going out on new adventures and it causes some anxiety. I had always wanted to take the train ride through the Royal Gorge. I thought this would […]
Fun With Chickens
My sister got some baby chicks 6 weeks ago and my mom and dad and I were able to see them the day after they arrived. They were so tiny, fragile, cute, and fuzzy. This is my sister’s first venture with chickens, so it is a whole new experience. She and her husband got the […]
Lilies
My brother sent my mom some white lilies for Mother’s Day. They were in a very large box in tons of wrappings. Once my mom and dad got it all undone, my mom followed the directions to the letter. Soon the huge flowers started opening. Every day a few more would pop. The fragrance at […]
Windy Weather
I was awake unexpectedly early this morning and thought about going out to see if I could find any meteors from the shower that is happening right now. But then I heard the wind. I don’t like the wind at all. But I do like the sound of the trees blowing. So, I laid there […]
