Working on my planet today. Pouring over more euro photos for potential upload or other artistic creations and I ran into this shot of Daniel. He stands against a paris sky just outside the louvre. It is so hard to believe that it was four months ago that we were there. 
Anyway, this photo makes me smile. It makes me smile because I am reminded how much I love my little family. It reminds me of the conversation that the three of us had over dinner last night that was fun and lively and spun of creative inspiration over pasta and salad. It reminds me of the weekend we had of sunday morning french toast and more being together. Bryan and I were discussing something related to the history of the church, the teachings of Jesus, and communities today. As Daniel joined us at the table and before his butt hit the chair he said.."I have some thoughts on that". More conversation.
Is it weird that the three of us really like to be together? It is like our creativity is boosted by each others presence. It is a gift that I revel in and marvel at. And I know that time is so precious.
Friday is the next installment of the college quest for Daniel. A visit to the UMD campus complete with tour. It makes me even more aware of the stages of the life of a family. Of course when I get a little sentimental with my son, he tends to put me right with humor. At the beginning of this school year it hit me hard and I commented to him...
"I can't believe you are a senior".
He promptly replied...
"It's ok mom, next year I will be a freshmen".
