Tonight's picture was taken in June of 2003. I remember taking this photo of Mattie like it were yesterday. He managed to get his body from the living room to our dining room. This was a big deal, because even though Mattie was a year old, he wasn't walking yet or toddling. Mattie wasn't a crawler either. But he had his own unique way of scooting himself around. So I captured him with his cute blue whale overalls on migrating from one location to another.
Quote of the day: One time I saw a tiny Joshua tree sapling growing not too far from the old tree. I wanted to dig it up and replant it near our house. I told Mom that I would protect it from the wind and water it every day so that it could grow nice and tall and straight. Mom frowned at me. "You'd be destroying what makes it special," she said. "It's the Joshua tree's struggle that gives it its beauty. ~ Jeannette Walls
Tonight's blog is super short because I am simply exhausted from the drive from Boston to Washington, DC. It was a LONG nine hours with intense traffic. We are home safely and the rental car has been returned to the airport. I appreciate all the emails about our car accident and for the support. Until tomorrow!!!! As always thank you for visiting Mattie's blog.
