Just as the earth goes through seasons, so does a family. As
our children grow older, our leaves start to change. We have had a lot of
firsts going on in our family lately. I thought I would share. Lily had her
first basketball game. Her sister is the
coach for her team. How sweet is that? Watching Lily play makes us smile from
ear to ear. She plays exactly like her sister did at her age. Very aggressive,
gives 100% and even has time to stop and pick her wedge. HA! Seeing this sisterhood
bond just melts my heart!
We had our first real snow fall. Kuchman loved it! He built his
first snowman. Dad got the gator out and Kuchman had his first adventure with
being pulled in the snow! His little face was frozen, but refused to come in!
On Martin Luther King Day we all took the day off and went
to the Children’s Museum in Indy as a family in honor of Martin Luther King. My
son has rights because of him and I will be forever grateful. From the abolitionist,
to the civil rights activist, to the mother who simply wants to raise her son
to have a great life without judgment because of his skin color. Dr. King’s
legacy, our legacy, must never be forgotten or diminished. To do so undermines
and weakens the very foundation on which we stand. One nation, equal, united
and free. Kuchman and Lily got to go on
stage and hit a drum with some gentleman playing African music. This momma was
shocked my shy little boy went right up there. I’m sure having his big sister right beside
him gave him some courage.
And my last picture says it all. We are very
blessed.
