A Poem

My Heart...

My heart looks
My heart sees
My heart knows me.

My heart crawls
My heart wobbles
My heart walks to me.

My heart frowns
My heart cries
My heart screams at me.

My heart smiles
My heart laughs
My heart plays with me.

My heart loves
My heart calls me...
                                ... Momma.


Inspired by this quote I read in a book:
"Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous.  
It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking 
outside your body." ~ Elizabeth Stone



The Johnson Family Visits Sea World

Somewhat spontaneously, we decided to take a drive down to San Diego, and spend a few hours at Sea World.  We caught the Shamu Show right away, and spent the rest of the time exposing Nicky to some of the great marine wildlife at the park!  And, for the surprise ending to our day...we discovered the Sesame Street kids' play area, complete with photo opportunities with some of the kids' favorite S. Street characters.  Next trip, we're going to Sesame Street FIRST!!!

Spoke To Soon, I Guess

So, after saying I couldn't think of anything specific to share, I thought of a couple different things.  So, here we go...............

4th of July ~ Fun with flags and Nicky's pal Christian! 
~ Watching fireworks with Momma!

We took pictures with a couple of Nicky's favorite 
Sesame Street characters, Zoe & Elmo!


Visiting with relatives ~ the Bredehoft Blondes 
& Grandma Colleen's 12 Grandkids

Just for Fun to Catch Up...

Well, since it's been awhile since the last entry, and not able to decide on an event or topic to share... I decided just to share a few fun/cute/etc. photos from the last couple months!
