We’ve had some pretty perfect playing-in-the-leaves days this week. Sixties, sunny, and no mosquitoes to swat at…really, it couldn’t get any better than that.
It amazes just how long my three boys can stay outside…and the many different ways they find to entertain themselves in a pile of leaves. Of course there’s the ever popular jumping in the leaves, but there’s also been lots of biking through the leaves… getting buried in the leaves… burying small objects and finding them again in the leaves… throwing the leaves (both in the air and at each other)… making as high a moutain as possible with the leaves… When you’re a little boy, the possibilities are endless. I love it. They come in with roses in their cheeks, leaves in their hair, and with that yummy Fall smell on them. Mmmm.

hey can I borrow your leaf pile in the morning?
I’d love to go with you to the museme but we don’t have a membership- we have one to the zoo though …
