The children and I spent a school-free afternoon in the Mulberry Bungalow.
I kept thinking over and over in my mind how blessed
I felt lucky. So lucky.
The treehouse is a wonderful place to be with the children and
surrounded by beautiful green leaves, pleasant weather,
my heart could have burst with happiness.
Then I thought about Mr. Nielson and how he
built the Mulberry Bungalow
with his two hands and how he designed, built, and painted it.
My heart was pounding with gratitude and love for him,
and our life together with our beautiful children.
Then we discovered the beehive that Mr. Nielson destroyed last Saturday.
And inside the tree's hollow were thousands of dead bees and honey.
It was exciting, and the Lil Nies were so amazed.
This weekend we are expecting visitors!
Lucy and Andrew are coming from Utah to stay for a few days.
We plan on hosting a very delicious Cinco De Mayo Party.
Preparations for that are going to be crazy (U-Haul involved)
but it's going to be epic.
