"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break." -- An ancient Chinese belief


"While I slept, my heart kept vigil."

"Today I kissed an angel, I knew it from the start; The first time our eyes met, I gave away my heart.

Today I kissed an angel, This angel child of mine; Though not of my creation, My child by God's design.

Today I kissed an angel, My heart is dancing wild; A family by a miracle, Blessed by this angel child."

Grape jam...look out Welch's and Smuckers


Charlotte's not one for eating jam, but she certainly went to town licking the ladle when we finished making grape jam with the Concord grapes we grew at the cottage.

 

She also loved picking the concord grapes, but wouldn't have anything to do with eating them after her first taste--I was too slow with the camera to get a shot of her pucker and facial expressions that followed spitting out the grape.
