It is a beautiful, rainy morning outside. There is no wind, no sun, no list of errands that we have to jet off to accomplish. The windows on the house are opened wide which allowed me to listen to Kenyon's endless older brother wisdom that he was bestowing on John.
Enjoy the following gems from a 15 minute time span.
The boys enjoy picking the purple bean pods off my decorative bean vine (not edible). I now have a half-bushel sitting on a table for anyone that would like some. |
Nobody step in that. That is my potty. We need to find a different spot to play in now. Watch your feet, John.

Is that a snake? If that is a snake, you're supposed to run fast and scream Mom said.

Are we supposed to not get dirty? Is rain dirty? I can just take a bath again.

It looks alive. We're not supposed to take it in the house if it's alive.
(I have no idea WHAT was alive, nor do I care to find out.)

Dad's gonna go work on a pickup today. Dad's gotta work on a lottttttt of pickups.

Last night while running endless errands, we walked by a pop machine in a feed store. The boys have never consumed pop. The only beverage they identify with coming from aluminum cans is... you guessed it... beer.
John, we cant have any beer because we don't have any coins for the machine.
