Can you tell I've been babysitting?

I don't have this kind of toy around my house. But I've been spending my time with someone who does!

Sunrise

I got up this morning to go babysit for my dd and the sunrise lit the sky with pinks and blues. Even though I was running a bit late, I took the time to take a couple of pictures. Here's one.

My Downtown at Sunset

My downtown is awfully nice. DH and I went down to walk around tonight. We are blessed.

My Companion Today

I babysat Halle today. I took her outside and she loved it. How do kids move so much on so little food?

Halle

Betsy, one of my dds, is babysitting this little one all week. All week except when she's in class. During those times I'll be with little Halle. She doesn't know me that well, so I've spent time with her the past three days, trying to get her used to me. She's a cutie.

By jove, I think spring has come to the area!

I went outside to take a picture of a dry end of grass that I saw and I took that. Then I looked up and saw we had two daffodils up! When I walked up to photograph them I saw our crocuses and some other little flowers. Then dh and I walked down to the dock and the swans are back! Now, hardly anyone in Maryland likes these swans. They are really destructive to the waterways because they pull the grasses up by the roots. They aren't native to the area and they are ruining things for the crabs and other native water creatures. But, they do still have a smooth grace that is beautiful to watch. Of course the closer they get, the more you see their imperfections, but isn't that true with anything? I waited to try and get this picture with the reflection and my swan friend finally turned the right way. I'm going to post a few of my other pictures on my other web site, I really am going to try and keep this site to one a day.

No, I'm not depressed

I just like cemeteries.
