This morning I took a long stroll around our seven acres for my own satisfaction. After a crazy weekend of unexpected business I couldn't pass up the late cool moring given to me. Zerrick very responsibly went down to his Math and Keagan found a book to finish and the other two found the swing and hammock. And I spent an uninterupted half hour. Maybe this estate seems messy and overgrown to some people but to me it feels safe and a sweet haven. And it is messy that's true. But life is messy when there is so much life to live.

| I started out at the front of the house. Because that is where we had our coffe this morning, me and the kids. |
