The Dog Days Are Upon Us

August 2nd, 2008

That’s right.  It’s really stinking hot out there.  We spent this morning with the useful run to the Farmer’s Market, Recycling Center, and our monthly, marathon of grocery shopping before retreating to the air conditioning.  We’re off to the park tonight for a friend’s birthday party and some intense sweating.  Welcome to August.

Yesterday, we took Ester and Justice to the first “Babes and Books” playgroup of the new school year.  Ester, of course, really loves the songs, and Justice loves to watch all the other people.  On the way out, Ester and Jena (her cousin) had to hold hands on the way to the cars.  It was super cute.

Finally, in one week we’ll be celebrating Ester’s second birthday.  I can’t believe it has been another year.  This week, I’ve been digitizing videos from our trip to Ethiopia and our early days back in Wichita last summer.  It’s amazing to see how fast our little girl is growing up and to compare her actions in Ethiopia to Justice now, as they are about the same age.   What a wonderful journey it has been, and we’re just getting started!
