screen door

One of my favorite summer time memories as a child is hearing the creak of my grandmother’s screen door opening and slamming shut, followed by the pitter patter of our little feet running in and out of the house.

She would inevitably scold us, “Stay in, or stay out!” but that hardly stopped us. We’d just laugh head back outside, the screen door slamming shut behind us. When it was time to eat, she would push the door open slightly, and stick her head out and call for us. The creaking of the door announcing her presence way before we actually heard her voice. Oh, I miss her so!

Do you have a favorite summertime memory from your childhood?

love thursday – inauguration edition

I would like to honor this week’s love Thursday with an image of our President taking the oath of office with his wife by his side – this was our view from the National Mall on Tuesday (yes, we had to look at the screen – we were very far!).

The love that these two share is evident. A catch of the eye, a touch of hands, a twinkle in their eye – their love is subtle, but oh so strong. You can feel their connection. May their love continue to grow and strengthen these next few years!
