It's amazing how much better your day can go when you pray about it.   Getting stung by a wasp does nothing to help Tassia's mood.   It does, however, make her finger swell and turn her arm pink almost up to the elbow.   I have mixed feelings about finding the word "poo" spelled out on my refrigerator in magnets.   Great, simple dinner:  Cold, cooked rice.  Cold, no-longer-frozen peas.  Dallop of crème fraîche.  Freshly snipped mint and chives.  Salt and pepper.   First zucchini bread of the season.   Alina played all of "Lightly Row" today.  There were many starts and stops.  It was squeaky.  But she did it.   Tassia covers her eyes with her hands every time she hears Alina approaching.
