Alma, James, and I went to Sandy, Utah to visit Erica's family. Alma and Eliana spent many hours in the backyard making potions and clay. It was a delight to have time with them and learn about the animals who live in their backyard, including bees, goats, chickens, a rooster, and Honey (the cutest dog ever). I wish we lived closer -- I value my relationship with Erica so much and loved getting to know her three girls a bit.
