Ilea

We've had gorgeous weather the last few days, the first really warm days of spring for us. Sun was upper 70's, and in the evening after dinner I let Ilea walk up the hill by herself (she and Kyler are getting more privileges). We tried to make a fire in our fire pit in the back, and while Kipp was trying to get the waterlogged wood to catch, I drove up to find Ilea, because I knew she would want to enjoy the fire too, and it was getting on to dusk.

I picked her up as she was heading back down, and asked her what she had done for so long. She said she was just talking to God, thanking Him for the beauty and talking about other things.

Makes my heart melt...
