On Thursday the girls and I met my mom for lunch in West Hartford and then the four of us ventured over to Elizabeth Park. The last time that we were there was probably about six years ago when the girls were little and we were on our way down to New Jersey for a family gathering. It was so lovely to be back after all this time, and to see my girls see this magical place (again) for the first time. We walked around exploring, enjoyed ice cream cones by the duck pond and then ended our visit to Elizabeth Park with a trip to the Ana Grace Memorial Playground (in honor of Ana Grace Marquez-Greene daughter of two University of Hartford alums and one of the young victims of Sandy Hook).
In the words of Ana's mother: "Love wins."
It does indeed. xo
