Pleasant Evening

I had the most plesant evening today. After a nice walk as a family, Mike went off to scouts, and the kids and I spent time in the backyard. I thought my time would be limited by grumpy kids, but it was quite the opposite. Donovan and Laneah played so well together, they deserved to stay up a little later. They rode bikes on the deck, ran around on the grass, and played on their castle playground. They were so quiet. I enjoyed pulling bindweed out of the grass, weeding between my daylilies, and cultivating my new flower bed. The weather was warm and cozy. It was wonderful.
