Your daughter looks lovely.One of my fondest memories is being 17 and graduating from high school. The night after graduation dreaming about all the big dreams I had and wanted to accomplish.
I like to think at any age you can still have big dreams for yourself.

I'm sure having you as her mother...you have impressed upon her heart all the endless creative possibilities in life...by example of course. So we can look forward to Mom blogging just a little about "her journey".

Love ...Rita

Ooooh..... there she IS! You are a genius, Koralee. Your photos are magazine worthy, book worthy (as we see now!) and are filled with so much communication about the human experience. And yes precious, summer is almost here, and we are going to PARTY! All went well yesterday at the appointment; now I just need to find out what the blood tests show. No concern about any cerebral events, but rather a deeper look has to be taken at hormones!!!!!

Have a super day; you AND the kids have just a wee bit to go!!!!! LOVE! Anita

Good morning Koralee!

I just saw your comment pop in! And you are on your way to two more weeks of testing, saying good-bye and hopefully getting some REST! I wish you the most productive but also restful two weeks as you wrap things up. This is our district's final week of school and I do go in tomorrow and will try to go in up until the last day on Thursday.

Thank you for coming to visit our home and garden. I am working so hard to take better photos. I need to get creative with taking focused shots of smaller spaces, but it's fun. I would love to know how you will do your garden space! We are still at it and even today we will be outside getting more done. SUNSHINE is abundant today with some rain expected tonight: the perfect HOUR for rain!

MANY HUGS MY DEAR AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK! Anita
