Yesterday's forecast was "abundant sunshine", so the word abundant was on my mind all day. I found myself really liking the word, it's like being "really filled up with a lot of good". I really feel like that IS my life.
First things first, yesterday was my favorite brother's birthday - he turned 33! We had an abundant 76 minute conversation :-) Happy Birthday
Butchie, I want to hear about a blog from you soon.

Right now I have an abundance of work. The past three weeks have been unbelievably busy at Comfort Keepers. We have nearly doubled our business in three weeks. I won't go into the logistics of how difficult this is, but may I just send out a huge thank you to my dear friend Bryn and my amazing scheduler Annie - you guys are the best!
With the help of Uncle Richard, I took the boys shopping for new clothes yesterday. The end result was an abundance of new (baseball) clothes! Thank you Richard for your help - I hope you got all the "sticky" washed off you.

Can you tell I have boys? Not a stitch of pink/purple in the stack.
Ah, then there was the abundance of Spring food we had for dinner! Cheeseburgers and asparagus on the grill, fresh strawberries, and tomato/cucumber salad.

An abundance of new growth that Duncan is just as excited about as I am.

And last but not least, an abundance of baseball. And for those of you that don't know, baseball is all about the "smoke" - the puff of dirt that appears when you slide into base or smack your foot on a base.

Yesterday was also Ma Jane and
Pop's 50
th wedding anniversary! Talk about ABUNDANCE! Congratulations you guys. We are having a celebration dinner next weekend at the Lodge when Aunt
Lynnie comes to town - I promise pictures next week.
So there you have it, a little snap shot of the abundance of in my life right now.

You are welcome! For those of you who are curious--the "sticky" came from two boys + Dairy Queen, divided by 1 cone, and one cup, and a complete reluctance to use the spoon--with the cup--by one little boy; and the insistence by the other to scoop his ice cream from his cone--to "share". The result: 4 sticky little hands, and me with only 4 mini-napkins. We all survived, just a little stickier. A little sticky never hurt anyone. :-)
Let me tell you Richard, Cooper LOVES to get up every morning and pick out a "new" baseball shirt, however, he wants to know where the one with the "fireball" is!! Do you remember that ugly shirt at Macy's?!! So thank you again :-)
What seemed like a terrible morning for me has turned into, laughing out loud and happiness as I sit here at my computer catching up on your blog! Between Jessica's comment about "Dad know's how to blog?", pics up my dear Duncan that I want to hug and squeeze to pieces, and the "amazing scheduler" comment, I am now ready to face this day differently. Thank you for your "always amazing and humbling" way of making us all feel better on a daily basis!!!!
