^^This kid received an apple, rocking whale, and wagon cart for her birthday from James’ parents.^^

A nod to our Courtland (though the apple is spelled Cortland) Whaley Cart.

^^The girls love it. For whatever reason, Kaki has convinced Sunny that hauling her around the yard in the cart is the most fun game in the Universe.^^

^^Maybe it’s because Sunny finds great delight in pulling her little sister uphill and then promptly letting her go…^^

^^Until the joke’s on Sunny.^^

^^Oh that cheeky grin. What trouble.^^

We’re just returned from a far too brief vacation by the sea. James and I had a night sans dependents on Martha’s Vineyard (thank you, Auntie Kimmy and Doda!) and then two days by the beach with the kids on Cape Cod. It was the first time we’d seen my mom since her emergency, and it was lovely to all be together, basking in those sunny days and that salty air. Many more pictures and stories to come. But now, to sleep, for while vacation is a delight, the resulting upset sleeping schedules of my needy dependents (canines included) are not!
