How Cute are They?

Meg loves a dog.

Sometimes in the chaos of living I forget to sit back and appreciate the little things in life. Mom kept all the kids for us a few weeks ago so we could work and in the case of Mere and Bill, attend a forestry convention. When I arrived to pick up my brood this is what I found. The kids had built their own little camp ground in the back yard, complete with campfire. Now look closely at the fire, they ripped up red, orange and yellow paper and stuck it between the sticks they had gathered to make it look real. It is amazing the things children will think up. How great is it to have a Grammie who will allow you to act on those impulses that would make this mom cringe because of the mess. Life is so so good.
