We are sitting outside in the beautiful 70 degree weather. Dar left at 6:30 this morning for a bike ride with John, and after delivering a birthday doughnut to a friend, the boys are playing in the back yard while I grade, grade, grade. It is the end of the semester crunch for me, and while I am dreading the amount of grading I still have left, I feel unbelievably blessed to be sitting outside, enjoying the sun and listening to the boys play while I work.
We brought lunch outside for a picnic (which started when Charley brought me a glass of water -- with fancy straw -- and apple. He has been loving to "take care of me." It's precious..... I predict his future wife will be one lucky girl. Anyway, in the midst of lunch, Charley says "Mommy, what did the man say when he walked into a bar?" You can imagine my train of thought -- why is my 3-year-old telling bar jokes?!?!?! Wait for it....... "Ow." I laughed so hard, mostly from relief.
