I have always loved hearing what she has to say about what she sees when we are in the car. My youngest daughter, now 15, is very observant of everything around her, and always has been.

Compared to sunny Phoenix there were a lot of these gray days. My mom and I came up with the word for the way they made us feel - we said it gave us the "glumps". To this day I still use that word whenever I am feeling dull and gray :-) When I was in junior high we lived in El Cajon, CA (about 30 minutes inland).

Isn't that sad? Thank goodness for children. We are old. They are new. I think the older we get, the easier it is to see things from a jaded perspective.

Maybe we should bring back the practice of the Sunday Drive? Wheels are turning.... Wishing you a very happy new year. Car conversations are often the most memorable.

The way they were moving in rotation, it was quite a 'dance'. Very fascinating, and we would have missed it, if not for a car window and a red light. We love car convos. : ) We spent forever at a red light the other day observing/laughing over birds on the electric wire. The way they were moving in rotation, it was quite a ‘dance’.

I don't know what it is about this but....it makes my heart grow a little more for him every time I sneak a peek at him doing this. We have a dvd player (portable which means I don't often want to take the time to pull it out and set it up) and an ipod but mostly, we just chat or ride along companionably. Good times here. Peace.

My, how I miss the times when my little girl was - little! Just seeing the everyday things through innocent eyes is such a gift. You are so blessed to have your little boy in your life.
