A Salute to America

We took Emily to see the tribute to 9-11 which consisted of thousands of American flags lined up at the park by Murfee Elementary. She enjoyed running through the flags and trying to make them wave in the wind. I know she is too young to understand the significance of this trip, but maybe someday, when she's older, she will appreciate it. Thank you to all (especially Uncle Jeffrey) who fight to keep us a free nation. God bless America!

Chicken Pox

Since we have been quarantined to the house this entire week due to Emily's chicken pox, we have enjoyed the great outdoors. She had fun running through the sprinkler and riding her tricycle. Thank goodness her chicken pox case was mild. She was in good spirits and didn't even run a fever. We just got a little cabin fever now and then. I enjoyed staying home with her even under the circumstances. I'm thankful to say that she is free and clear to return to school on Tuesday!
