We are thankful for a slow onset of summer here in Arizona. We enjoyed a beautiful spring right up to the end of May. Stefan has been diagnosed with Fragile-X syndrome, which is kind of a relief, since it helps up frame our understanding of his behaviors. If you look it up, you will find a general description that fits Stefi pretty much to a tee. If you know Stefan personally, it will make a great deal of sense. Nothing in particular changes in our day-to-day, but it does give context to his extreme potty-training challenges.
Various scenes from life follow:

A treat before a blood draw.
Farm princess in a bus.
Goats!
Ducks!
Dahlias.
We are right around the two-year anniversary, so things are somewhat disturbed. We appreciate your prayers, and thank you for visiting.
In Christ,
Papa
