An anniversary gift

Last Saturday was our wedding anniversary.

It was still painful to swallow solid food, so we decided against going out to eat.

We opted for a relaxing day at home - no chores allowed.

Jo and CoCo asked to play outside.

Fifteen minutes later they come back in, proudly presenting our anniversary gift:

Jo tells me how she put rocks in the bottom of the pail, then Cokes scooped in some dirt. Jo found a worm and added that too. Then they planted a "flower" and sprinkled water from our rain barrel on it. Now its the centerpiece on our patio table.

Here we are, six years after saying, I do.
With a home of our own and three healthy daughters.
We are so blessed.
