Life With Ella

Ella is such a lover of life.  She manages to throw herself into everything that she is doing and she really loves every individual thing.  On Saturday, Ella swam, took a ride in the golf cart, drove the golf cart (on papa’s lap), putted a little bit, ran through the sprinkler, found a leaf bug and took lots of pictures.  She loved each thing.  The only thing that is missing is mommy.  We love you and miss you so much.  Today (Sunday) we all went to the cemetery for the unveiling of my grandmother’s head stone.  Before Sunny left, we explained to Ella that the cemetery is a place to go to remember people who have died.  We told her that the stones represented the people.  We did not tell her that the bodies were buried in the ground.  This morning while we were having breakfast, I was explaining to Ella about the unveiling again, telling her that a rabbi was going to speak and that there would be some family members there and that they were going to take a veil or scarf off the stone.  Ella asked if she could bring a stone…I told her that was a beautiful idea and that she could put it on my grandma’s stone.  She went outside with my dad and found a little stone.  She then drew a heart on it.  She said that she would put it on my grandma’s head stone.  She did just that today and it was beautiful.  Obviously, I didn’t take pictures, but it was just so pure and “Ella”.

Happy boy!

The beginning out our golf cart journey.

Ella checking out the water trap at papa’s club.  She was pointing at the bubbles where there were fish.

Sweet love.

The golf course is really beautiful.

Ella’s first golf lesson…she’s not exactly a natural, but she can learn if the spirit moves her.

Ella frolicking through the sprinkler.  She couldn’t stop giggling.  Such a sweet scene.

Ella and I found this leaf bug outside of my parent’s house.  I took the first shot, Ella took the second.

Ella took this of grandma and papa.

Beautiful grandparents and their grandchildren.

Another one of Ella’s masterpieces.

I took this one – Milo has a thing for the garbage can in the kitchen.  He can stand there talking to it for like 15 minutes!
