The weekend trip to south central Nebraska was punctuated by a few great thunderstorms. There’s something about the way they form around the lake–it’s just breathtaking!

Six months
Olivia is six months old today.
You might expect that such a milestone would please me, or at the bare minimum, not drive me to tears every time I write the date. Instead, I shout furtively from my desk, “How did this happen? I was paying such close attention!”
I am consoled only by the fact that six-month-old babies are absolutely wonderful. Olivia’s gleeful greeting is bested only her by attempts to smash her face into mine whenever I pick her up. This primitive kiss makes my heart soar…and my throat catch.
