In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Kyra’s a pretty good photographer. I like this picture.

The Kiddos in their Easter finery. Kyra’s Easter dress was sleeveless, so she had to wear a shirt under it, since it was COLD. It was almost too cold to hunt Easter eggs.

The kids with their cousin, Keinzie.

Elijah was saying, “Cheese!” He didn’t get that it defeated the purpose when he barked it out with a hateful look.
