my first attempt at homemade bagels
Maggie’s bagel recipe
Judah helped me roll the dough
the electricity only went out for a couple minutes mid-batch
summertime in our city
cloudless skies
the wind that makes our mornings cool
the pool
Judah’s preschool
Judah is learning to write “B’s” and “3’s”
settling back into a routine
quiet mornings with Amelie
after-school donuts at the Donut Baker today
the Donut Baker employees, who invite Judah and Amie behind the counter to explore
my two big kids, sitting on the auto seat next to me
waiting for the “I’m in labor” phone call from Becky
talking baby names with everyone who is pregnant
two nephews on the way
Jonathan and Sarah and Hudson, God’s gift to me for the ones I love
my all-natural Himalaya peanut butter
overheard conversations between Judah and Amelie
emails from Hannah
phone calls from our family
reconnecting with playground friends
hanging out in Asma’s apartment
Scotty Smith’s books
Amie likes to wear dresses now
David is spending the day with a new friend
rest
we are all four in good health
clean dishes and a clean countertop
a date tonight, thanks to our sweet friend Stacie
Judah went on his first field trip this week (to the market. they are learning about fruits and vegetables.)
