Nearly as soon as we brought home pets from the shelter, Gracie decided this would be the summer of the Backyard Circus. Auditions for the Hoop Jumper were held today...
Introducing the Hoop
("Mom, can we light this thing on fire?)
Taking the First Step
She did it!
(Sadie would chase her favorite chew toy through the hoop. She actually jumped through three or four times before becoming bored...)

I talk about my life anyway because if, on the one hand,
hardly anything could be less important, on the other hand,
hardly anything could be more important.
My story is important not because it is mine, God knows,
but because if I tell it anything like right, the chances are
you will recognize that in many ways it is also yours.
Maybe nothing is more important than that we keep track, you and I,
of these stories of who we are and where we have come from
and the people we have met along the way
because it is precisely through these stories in all their particularity,
as I have long believed and often said, that God makes himself known
to each of us most powerfully and personally.
