visited my dad and spent some quality time
eating chocolate covered frozen bananas
with rainbow sprinkles
in honor of my mom...
one of her favorites.
she loved Balboa Island
and we spent the day savoring it all...
including the ferry across the water
towards the Pacific and Balboa Peninsula.
this little guy knows how to traverse the water in style.
just thought I'd let you see I really am doing OK...
smiles and tears each day
and only one day at a time is required.
a little sun and sand doesn't hurt,
but the airplane carried me back home to the rain,
and you know what?
it is just fine by me -
it's winter after all.
and I got to spend time with the giggly girls
in art club today...
making doggies
here is mine.
what a happy little fellow -
gives me hope for the future...
