Wish I had my good camera

Fall is in full swing here in Roanoke, VA. The leaves have all changed colors and the mountains are spotted with red, yellow, and orange trees. it is beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed the drive up here on Monday. Even the trees around the playground are a brilliant red. The temperature is warm, but not hot, and the nights are cool. I love it!

Each week I contemplate bringing the nice camera and each week I decide not to. big mistake! Every day this week I have regretted that decision. I want to capture the sweet moments of the kids playing in the leaves and sitting under the trees with red leaves all around them. It is priceless. I will have to remember them in my mind. I caught a few pictures on my phone…

Today we went to a new playground that is just around the corner. It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining and not a cloud in the sky. The kids played on the equipment for only a few minutes. They had more fun funning the bases on the overgrown baseball field, blowing the dandelion flower puffs, and running down the large grassy hills.

I had the realization today that this is the last year that we will be able to do this any day we want. Faith will be in school next year and will be gone a majority of every day. Wilson is going to miss her terribly, and so am I. They are so sweet and loving to each other. I am proud to be their mother.

I almost forgot to mention Miller’s second word: “uh-oh”. He said it perfectly with the perfect inflection. “uh-oh” – with that high octave “uh” and lower “oh”. I couldn’t believe he said it. Faith and I kept saying it and he would repeat it. I am telling you, he is the great imitator of sounds.
