Rachel and Holly


One of the most special people in Rachel's life (and mine) is Holly Morris. When we got home from India Holly had cleaned the house, decorated, put flowers and balloons everywhere, and homemade chocolate chip cookies were waiting on the counter in the kitchen. When Rachel met Holly the day after we got home, Rachel ran straight into Holly's arms before she could even get out of the car. Holly happens to be in a wheelchair; Rachel is totally oblivious to this. She only has eyes for "Haree" and not her conveyance.

Yesterday, we (Tom, me, Holly, and Rach) went to the property (Rachel's hands down second favorite place; her favorite place is Mary's house.) Tom went off to spread more straw on the trails while Holly, Rach, and I suited up for some beekeeping. A tiring, loving, beefilled day. Perfect. Then home to have movie night with popcorn and chocolate. Rachel feel asleep against Holly and was then carried to bed by Daddy.
