Tim and more pictures. And also Tim.

I have a lot on my mind. There's that home-again-laundry, of course. There's yard work. There's way a lot of lacrosse. I'm in love, though, and I'm thinking about that a lot. You know how Spring is supposed to make you all twitterpatted?. It's working.
I actually went to Eagle Island this afternoon with Kara, and later sat on the patio at our favorite restaurant. That was glorious. I love Summertime with Kara. We got a bit sunkissed, she and I. She's burned because she didn't put on the sunscreen. That's gonna hurt.

But, my lunch date was very much on my mind. Tim took me to lunch today at a lovely Deli, where we sat in the sunshine, and I admired his jawline and his biceps. He is so hot.
I think I need therapy because I'm so in love. Really. He'll be talking about golf or policics, and my mind is scrolling though all these months I've known him, and how imporobable it is that he actually likes me, and how dreamy his lips are. And I smile like an idiot, and thank God in a silent prayer.
I heard what he said about politics. Really.

I wrote a list, years ago, about those things I required in a man. It's a long time I've been unmarried, and I gave some thought to the matter.
There was once, in particular, when I thougt I ought to loosen my standard a bit. I was tempted to give up being so strict and so....well, you know. I totally thought I would never find the sort of man I wanted.
This one's better. Oh, he's wwaaayyy better.

I'm so annoying, aren't I?
Fine. We'll view my photos, then, shall we?


Here is Mother (in the celery colored shirt) with her sister, in the middle (Auntie Lynda) and their cousin, Charlotte. Mother looks like she has beady eyes in this photo, which is not the case. She really has lovely brown eyes. And look at that hair! She is an old lady and you can't even tell. I hope I have her genes.


Ok, this is my neice, Maddie (in the center), and Jenine's kids (Sarah and Rachel) They would be second cousins, or something.


This is my sister, Dani, and her daughter, Mika. Beautiful, no? Dani is also Maddie's mom. Dani is due in September with 3#, and we need to pray her a boy. Otherwise she'll think the entire world is made of "sugar and spice and everything nice," and she will be skinny, and we'll have to hate her. That would be such a waste.


Owen, of the sign language,and the straw confusion. Tell me this child is not cute! His momma was the first person in the world to know that I was pregnant for Michael, since she was sleeping on the couch at my grandmother's house when I did the test....but that was 15 years ago. Jessie is due with her second in June. Owen's momma is Jessi, who is Jenn and Johanna's eldest sister. Are you taking notes?


May I introduce another child de familia? This is ZaaZaa, formally named Isaiah. He is a love. Also, we should jointly pray him a sibling! He is the son of faithful reader, cousin Jenn. You may all thank her for the recent addition of photos to this blog, as she gave me a camera. "Hi Jenn!"

What?
I can bring any conversation back to Tim.
It's a gift, I tell ya.


Is it my fault that I am so loved?
I need some new pictures of Tim, huh?
