Joys of Childhood



Fall days are an absolute dream. Olivia and Zach took the afternoon to enjoy the good, old backyard and play. It wasn't "mommy, let's go to Kangazoom" or anywhere else. It was an afternoon of getting the slip-n-slide out for Olivia and her new horses, sidewalk chalk, sunning ourselves, reading and playing. Olivia figured out that she likes Granny Smith apples over her once favorite Washington red apples, so she helped herself to one. Zach used his imagination to play in the dirt/pinestraw and visit me every 15 mintutes to read out of his book (oh, and give me a hug). What's not to love about our afternoon? Of course, when I threw the frisbee and hit Zach in the nose, all the happiness ended. But hey, it was great while it lasted. That boy has great coordination! He throws a frisbee better than most!
