there’s nothing wrong with kids that trying to reason with them won’t make worse

Noah's favorite time of day

Actually, his favorite time of day is whenever we go anywhere, but since we go every day to the bus stop it is a time of day to look forward to!Here he passes the time waiting for the bus to show up by reading 'Chuck the dump truck'. I have read this book about a billion times and I don't love it anymore, but boy, does Noah!
BUS! BUS MOMMA! BUS COMING! (the fact that the kids didn't ride the big yellow school buses came as quite a surprise to us, but they enjoy riding in the cushy seats of this one)
See how excited they are to see us? Such love as my children are brought back to me.
After we make it safely across the street we pass the town fountain, right next to the picnic benches and May tree. Isaac checks it every time we walk past to make sure that it is draining properly. There are two drains, you see, and he has taken upon himself the responsibility to clean them every day. I love the little dragon head fountain.
It looks like we are just walking in the road, doesn't it? In reality the sidewalk is only about two feet wide and in several places it is less than that. It makes for an interesting walk with me yelling about every 2.6 seconds: "Walk on the INSIDE of the sidewalk, please!" This particular corner gives me nightmares. That plus the speed of the cars coming around the corner makes me wonder why the houses on either side are still intact.

Home is the white house directly ahead, only you can't see our half.

I enjoy the views of your town and especially for your happy children. Lucky is the mom.

we sure miss you guys, and it is so fun to see your town and bus, and a little of your home. We hope Isaac had a great birthday. Did he already get baptized too? (this is Sharisse)
