Last weekend Parker and Steve were outside raking. I use the term loosely when it comes to Parker. Raking, shoveling, picking up rocks, playing with sticks, dragging tools around the yard. I was inside cooking dinner when Steve yelled for me to come outside. The most gorgeous sunset was coming to life right there in the sky and it’s been awhile since we’ve seen a really spectacular one. This was beautiful (even though the trees made it such that we couldn’t see it a long ways). The clouds turned from white, to pink, to orange, to gold, to wispy gray until the sun went down. Everything was aglow with a pinkish hue. We sat on the lawn and watched it until we couldn’t see it any longer.
Sometimes I have moments like this one where I’m reminded that life is really good. And I love those moments.

Parker's little face and thermal pants. I just want to squeeze him.

I don't know which is more beautiful–the look of love on Steve's face as he watches Parker, or the sunset over the trees. Maybe it's a tie 🙂
