We’ve had a phenomenal April. Beautiful sunny days and cool mosquito-less evenings. It’s been lovely. I brought the camera along to the park the other night…
Elijah…10 and 1/2. Can you believe I have a 10 and 1/2 year old? He’s getting so grown up and distinguished looking.
Noah already has a tan and bleached hair. And a dirty face as this photo reveals.
In a family of five kids a face or two may occasionally go unwashed.
Our Ellie Pearl loves to be outside. LOVES it. The sand, the grass, the invigorating breeze… Ah, I love how babies make these old things seem new again.
De plane, de plane! (Oh, how we’d love to be able to fly to the land of our birth on a plane soon.)
Zeke is at my favorite stage of tooth loss. I think this looks so cute, the gaps on either side of the two front teeth. He scored big with those two teeth, they fell out within minutes of each other. Zeke has now surpassed Elijah in tooth-loss, and therefore also in tooth-loss earnings. Elijah is so not impressed.

Janet, you’ve made my day. Thanks for sharing this pictures of your family. Elijah looks like your father. I couldn’t stop looking at him. And of course, Noah and Ezeke are beautiful, (I agree with you, boys can be beautiful) and Pheobe too. But I love that look and name of ‘Ellie Pearl”, what an awesome name. I can’t believe she is so big, and with that smile on her face. Andrew and Melanie’s baby is due June 10, they know it is a girl, but no names yet. I keep hinting at these two, Sadie Rose, and Lilirose. Melanie and Wesley are ‘talking’ babies.
Love You! (hope you can fly home within the not to distance future)
