Never was there more rejoicing in the land…
Do you see this … the current weather conditions? Yes, we’ll take it. I looked at the outside thermostat and got the boys ready pronto (pronto=30 minutes later). We headed outside to enjoy some sunshine. Tru was beyond delighted. Max was excited until he decided “I cold”… and “There’s snakes” (which really turned out to be dried up worms… ha-ha!). In the end… the boys found the one teeny tiny dirt spot in the flower bed and had a fun time digging in the dirt with sticks. They laughed and laughed and laughed and got very dirty. Boys! Alas… no photos because I forgot my camera and I was trying to be an attentive mother and not leave them in the front yard alone. But… my mind took a photo of boys in brightly colored clothes and hats laughing and having a wonderful time in the sunshine and dirt. Today we’re attempting to REJOICE in the simple and delightful.
What a great post, Heath. I am worried about being prepared because since we are moving we’ve been trying to eat all our food storage so we don’t have to haul it across the country. But because of your post I want to at least update our 72 hour kits and car kits! Thanks for giving me a nudge of inspiration. Love your blog for that! Loves to you!
