What an exhausting and hot hot week we are having. Today, when my 'lil critters and I meandered out of the woods early this morning after our walk, I actually could have used another shower. The temps weren't so bad, but the humidity...amazing.
What a wimp I am compared to my college years when I lived in southeastern TN and summer temperatures with high humidity easily reached 100F.
One of the memories that always stand out in mind (especially during the summer) was the year my daughter was 2. We lived in a townhouse that didn't have any AC, and in the midst of the heat wave that year, the temperatures were reaching highs of over 105F. I would get home from work/school/daycare as the sun was setting and it felt warmer INSIDE than it did OUTSIDE.
We learned what was open late...and what was cool.....Needless to say, we hung out at those places (late and cool) until they closed (mostly the university library).
Ahhh...those were the days....
Well, okay, enough of the memories, but my card today took me back there, because it's been so long since I've had a small child.
I don't know about EWE (snort laugh), but the images in this card just make me smile.
Today the {ippity} Fabulous Feature is all about Love...and...Family...and...Birth...
Which, of course, took me back to when my daughter was a whee one. And for me, that is what inspired this card. The sentiment "because of YOU our dream came true". Of course, to go along with the sheep (LOVE YOU), I changed it to "EWE".
And I love to remember when she was so tiny. She was such a smart, loving, happy girl.
She still smart, happy, and loving....And makes me smile whenever I see a picture of her...even as a grown-up!
