Phoebe looks pensive, “If something has wings, it can actually fly.”
Matt replies, “That’s right.”
“Your car has wheels. If it didn’t have wheels, then it could have wings. Then it could fly.” (more…)

We trade stories over tea.
“Mama, tell me a story.”
“Ok. Do you have a request?”
She thinks. “Tell: ‘Little Baby Phoebe and Scooter’ story.”
“Ok…
Once upon a time there was a little baby. She lived in her Mama’s belly and grew bigger and bigger. Mama’s belly grew bigger and bigger, too! And Scooter, the cat, loved to sit on Mama’s big belly. (more…)
Today is Phoebe’s birthday. She is three years old.
In commemoration, I chose to feature one photo for each month of her life as a two-year-old. Of course, these photos don’t contain every nuance of her year (how could they??)…but I hope they represent a bit of her personality, her spirit and her growth.
Enjoy!

Phoebe jumping off the rock wall.
We took a trip today to Meadowwood Farm to buy some raw milk, but they were all out. So we visited the animals, instead.

It snowed last night, and while it melted before we got to the waterfront, it was still cold. A perfect day to go to the rocky shores of Owen Beach, dontcha think?!

It’s been one of those days, filled with sunshine and sweet family moments, that I’d like to bottle up and savor for years to come. We woke early and made a pie to share with friends. Then we left for church; Phoebe fell asleep 1 minute from the building, so we downloaded a sermon to listen to in the car and hit HWY 16. We drove West until the highway ended in Gorst, turned around and headed back to Tacoma, through the September foliage and Washington evergreens. On the way back home, we detoured at Point Defiance Park, shared a sandwich at the duck pond, and explored the flower gardens. A lovely day.
PART ONE: Lemon Meringue Pie, made from scratch
PART TWO: Dahlias in the Park
(For the record, we didn’t pick any of the dahlias at Point Defiance Park, today. But there was one on the ground, already severed from the stem; this is the one Phoebe is holding in the pictures, and afterwards, we placed it back on the curb of the flower plot.)
