day two - Memorial Day


Talked with the kids this morning and they're already on the road again. Heading to Washington, D.C. and will be visiting Arlington National Cemetery sometime this afternoon on National Memorial Day 2007. They are thrilled to be going today of all days.

Their agenda also has them taking the train into the city. My daughter said they're going to walk around and explore. They've both been to Washington, D.C. with their high schools and still they are excited to be there again. I've never been... someday I hope to get there.

On a different subject, Samantha is thrilled to have a yard again. She constantly goes to the slider to ask to be let out. She's been running the fence with the neighbor dog and running around the yard in circles. Faith gets worked up also with her, but not as much.

Yesterday they both were full of it when they came inside from one trip out. They began throwing their stuffed toys up in the air and playfully growling and running around the house with them. It's amazing how fast they've become friends and how similar they are in personality.

I love it too... I no longer have to sleep alone... *lol*

It's great to have my baby home... and her sister here to keep her company. Now if it would just stop raining, I could get out on Hope today. And actually, I may just ride in the rain. It'd be another first for me... and I do so love all my firsts!

I hope all my friends and family and those I don't know personally who enjoy reading my blog have a wonderful Memorial Day. Thank you to all who have served, are serving and to the families of those who paid the ultimate price with their lives for our country and our freedom. I honor each and every one of you today and always...

I pray for peace...
