It's planting time!

This John McCutcheon song often comes to my mind in our everyday-ness of home and family...


Of all you learn here, remember this the best:

Don't hurt each other and clean up your mess.



Take a nap every day.  Wash before you eat.  


Hold hands.  Stick together.  Look before you cross the street.


And remember the seed in the little paper cup:


First the root grows down and then the plant grows up!



It is simply the most abundant and undeserved privilege that I get to root and grow with this family in this place we call HOME.
