Ode to Today

Because it was a wonderful day.
Because there were Happy meals. Popcorn balls. Races around the block. Swimsuits. Tennis shoes. Bare feet.
Because I(am starting to) love this street I call home.
Because neighbors {say they} missed the screams, yelling, laughter, naked babes in the street, and were happy to see these faces make their daily rounds once again.
Because of today....I put this out of mind and enjoyed the 70 degree sunshine...and even the spiders.

I so envy you for living in a small town with big beautiful trees on your street.

Wow. That's one of the messiest playrooms I've ever seen. Tell your kids, "Good Job! You won first prize!"

I love your street and I've never even been there. Sun-shiney and Leafy with sidewalks and everything!

Beautiful pictures! Your playroom looks like mine! I've been meaning to get to it, but it's so depressing how it only stays clean for about 8 minutes.

Your street is beautiful!!

Ummm, so I totally called grandma yesterday to wish her happy birthday thinking it was yesterday. She was so nice she didn't even say anything about the fact that I was calling her on the wrong day. Oops:) But she did talk a lot about you and your beautiful children and that she had fun seeing you for a month and was sad you had to go.
