I love photos of lonely toys. They speak to me and the reality of my life. I took this photo with my phone (because of the photo prompt of the day).

Earlier this month, I took S to story time a the Wailua library where we completed this leprechaun craft together. It’s pretty obvious which parts S colored and which parts I colored, but I guarantee it was all done on his terms! I only colored the parts I was directed to color.

The 21st was a lovely day, so we took the boys for an afternoon walk. We took several nice pictures that day, but I am fond of this shot of H.

S and H have both been lucky enough to benefit from the Dolly Parton Imagination Library. Each month both boys receive an age appropriate book selection in the mail. This month, S received Cinders: A Chicken Cinderella by Jan Brett. He took it to bed with him along with some of the titles he’s received in previous months.

H climbed up on me as I was fiddling with the menus on the new camera. While I was distracted, H decided to try on my glasses and I got this shot.

R and I got a babysitter Tuesday night so that we could attend his department’s banquet for graduating seniors. I ended up taking many duplicates ( or at least near duplicates) of this shot for many of the students in the picture as well a few of my own. Good luck class of 2014!

I noticed this little plant growing out of some rocks near our garage door. When I went back to take a picture, it was getting dark and the leaves had folded up close to the stem in the cooler evening air. So I picked the plant, took it inside and tried to flatten the leaves out enough to get a picture.

The photo prompt for Sunday was “Cheers” and after 3 hours of church and another 4 spent in committee meetings. I was none to cheerful. This out-of-focus camera shot of my street, taken with my phone on the way to my last committee meeting is not a beautiful photo, but it is an accurate representation of my day!

I took the boys to the zoo by myself while R was working, administering a test at the university. The zoo visit itself wasn’t hard, but finding a parking space was!

It was Pi Day, and we marked it!
