They are easier to detect after the fact. They are uncanny encounters, brushes with the supernatural, where the presence of the Lover accompanies us in a very real way, sheltering, directing, loving, moving, giving life to our everyday existence. You can't totally explain the experience, but you leave shaken to the very depths, knowing that you have been kissed by the Divine.

enjoying our "vacation"
We got to web cam with the kids, Nana and Papa in Houston last night. It was so hilarious. Here we were sitting calmly in quiet with Emora and on the other side, Nana has our two kids climbing all over her, shouting over her, showing us stuff Nana had bought them and telling us about their adventures, until they were bored of web caming (about 2 minutes into it, for Dominique and Ivan lasted about 10 minutes). Then Nana was still struggling to talk with us and hear over the chaos while we watched Ivan and Dominique rough housing with Papa who was just trying to peacefully lay down in the background. We told Ivan to get his butt over to the camera so that we could spank him and we all laughed at that.
Emora's been a fussy little girl today. Tighe kept her some while we used a gift card we had from Christmas to eat out and I was able to tell her that she cried and wanted me to hold her all day too. I have yet to fully figure her out. She slept in late and was in a good mood while we shopped for groceries, but after nap she was a bit of a crank.
Here is a visit we had with the Aim boys. Their newest super cute brother is named Titus. Ivan is so sad that we are moving because he doesn't want to leave his "best friend" Caleb (who we rarely see). But his mom suggested that they could send cards by e-mail and stay in touch that way. So maybe we can encourage that.

Emora is loosing the baby face look and is starting to look like a little girl. And her personality is starting to show.
Gavin has a little boy at school whom he would describe as his best bud in his class - his name is Caleb too. Spooky!
