Peering into Giles' Future


(not literally, that's his camera)

But I do know this: he's got an internship in New York City this summer. Yeah, my little hayseed baby.

And God is so good, He's given Giles a family to stay with while he's working there. A wonderful, fun, happy family with a toddler girl. I'm so jealous. Of Giles, and of his hosts!

  6. Well, you'll have to go to the Big Apple to visit him - what a trip that would be! My cousin is a photographer in NYC. http://www.robertessel.com/

  8. Congratulations to Giles...I have an older son in Virginia right now and I'm jealous of his hosts too! I'll see him in June and I'm so very ready! I hope your able to share some of his work with us here at Pleasant View, or will Giles take his site up again?

  9. I live in the Hudson River Valley about 90 minutes north of the city if he wants to get out of there for a weekend! Tell him good luck. It's an amazing city and there is so much to see and do there. He's going to have a great time!

    2. Thinking of you and Clara, regarding the "food" curriculum...in case you hadn't heard: there was a program on tpt recently, which is still available to watch via computer. Brenda's post for April 23 has the link. Here's Brenda's blog address:
