The Fun Continues

Our wonderful weekend has been extended into the week,

thanks to a two day visit from this boy.

Yes, he is wearing a kilt!

This boy, who stole my heart a little over nine years ago and continues

to hold it in his gentle hands.

This boy, who magically is full of empathy for others,

with a desire to please and a willingness to help.

He is gentle and patient with his little cousins and keeps us adults in stitches

with his wacky sense of humor.

Tell me, how many boys his age would have the self assurance to wear a kilt?

Not only did he have it on yesterday when I picked him up,

but he kept it on all day...

a day spent at our local ole' fashioned amusement park in the woods.

He acquired this kilt this summer when he vacationed with his dad in California.

They attended some Highland games while there,

and Tyler says when he was there, he just felt...

"these are my people."

He cracks me up!

We are spending today on the farm... doing chores, playing games,

and adventuring.

Last week one comment was a question as to whether there are any identifying markings

on Bea One and Bea Two.

Amazingly, they are completely identical... even down to the tiny, faint white dot

on their necks.

And as you can see, they are now as friendly as can be.

We are in the midst of a summer of beautiful weather.

We have had more sunny, blue-skied days than I can ever remember...

(the perfect season for generating solar power.)

Right now it's extremely hot,

but these days are numbered as Autumn is just around the corner.

Days like this with cooler temperatures will be heavenly!
