Day 9

1. The boys running around outside and inside, chasing eath other with laser guns. All while laughing so hard they keep tripping.

2. A new book. This time I will tell the title. Catching Fire. I know. . . young reading. But I like it.

3. Carson's laugh. I don't know if there is much more that can make me smile so big as his little laugh right now. It's actually more like a hardy belly laugh.

4. Ellie and Noah. Even though they argue with each other more than any of my kids, they also play SO well together. They spend the most time together every day now that Jackson goes to school. They spent a few minutes on time outs today for the usual fighting, but it always ends in hugs and kisses and that makes me happy that they are so quick to forgive AND forget. (Sometimes).

5. More good weather. The boys have been able to play for hours outside each day and I love that they love being out there. Today I watched them from the upstairs bathroom window and I felt so happy seeing them imagine and play together. I don't know what they were playing, but they each kept taking turns spinning with their arms out. Airplanes maybe????

I'm so thankful my kids love to play with each other. I know they will never go with out friends because they will always have each other.

i am hoping wellesley and jack will be that close. for now they play well side by side but there isn't too much togetherness. someday maybe.
