Posted: May 21, 2006 Filed under: Uncategorized 6 Comments »I just read Gnightgirl’s weekend post. It was excellent reading about how nice her day was yesterday. It motivated me to stop and smell and listen. To appreciate today.
- The grill is lit and we’re having a real summer meal – burgers, grilled asparagus, tomatoes.
- The boys are out back on the hammock laughing and playing together.
- The sun is shining and the wind is blowing gently.
- The scent of the lilac bush near the back door fills the house.
- There is a huge bucket of tulips on my kitchen island. In all different colors.
- The kids worked on their book reports this morning, so we get to goof off this evening together.
- We’re having strawberries for dessert. With sugar.
- Andrew brought me an amazing glass of wine to sip while I’m blogging.
- He took the boys to Over the Hedge this afternoon so I could finish some work for NCJW. I did. I finished.
- Last night we went to a Frederick Keys game. It was a blast.
- I love my life.
I hope your weekend was as nice as mine.
ahhaha even the homework got done before the last minute!
I was just thinking today that my weekend was pretty boring but I guess that’s a good thing because nothing bad happened.
I love this entry, and not just because I’m in it
Sounds like you’re having a wonderful day; any day with tulips and strawberries and giggling kids…ahhhhhhhhh
Jackt – it was remarkable! I guess they DID learn something this year
Junebee – Boring isn’t always a bad thing. Think of it as peaceful!
GNG – yes, a wonderful day! The tulips are so amazing! 4 dozen of them…!
I love your life too, especially the giggling kids.
Strawberries! Yummy. Nothing says summer louder than fresh strawberries. My favorite way to have them this time of year is mixed in a spinich salad with some balsamic vinegar….or over ice cream.
Glad you had a great weekend.
