October is a great month

We enjoyed having mom here for a visit.  She always stops for a while after her vacations to Hawaii.  Lucky for her, she was staying with us during our housing drama, witnessing both the sale of our home and failed purchase of a new one.  I think she enjoyed being in the middle of it all and I was grateful to have her calm assurance that everything would turn out for the best.  In the midst of pending change, we managed to take time to enjoy a few things:  Emmy brought home a "firetruck" from preschool, Pilot turned 9 years old, and Joseph and the boys did their first Walk Against Drugs.
