When Mom asked if the boys and I wanted to ride with her to SC to see Christy, it was just too hard to resist.  So we didn’t.  And had the most relaxing, fun weekend you can imagine.  Adam and Zachary have had serious personality clashes in the past; but for this weekend they laid them aside and played like best friends.  (Well, most of the time.)  Seriously.  It wasn’t at all unusual to hear “I want a turn with that next.” and then “Ok.” and very soon, “here you go” followed by “oh, thank you” all without any adult interaction.  Ahh, perhaps there is hope.<\/p>\n

We played in the sunshine
<\/a>
                                        <\/a> <\/a> <\/p>\n

toyed around in the dirt — hey, look at my dirty fingernails
<\/a>
  
                                                           <\/a> <\/p>\n

breathed in the scent of Spring<\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

soaked up the green<\/span> everywhere  — such life and healing to my winter wounded and weary spirit
<\/a> <\/p>\n

enjoyed a brunch with old friends that was as beautiful as it was fabulous thanks to Lisa
<\/a>
                       <\/a> <\/p>\n

ate lots and lots of good food <\/a> <\/p>\n

and just enjoyed being together.

It’s always funny how I get home from a trip and realize 90% of my photos are of the children playing.  Yet my favorite memories are of the times we had sitting around and talking, esp when the children were sleeping.  I guess I just don’t sit there going, “Oh, we’re so cute.  I should take a picture of us.”<\/p>\n

And now we’re home again with lots of good memories.  Adam asks almost every day why we aren’t still in SC.  “Did we unpack already?” he asked today.  He was sure we could live there and when I explained that I couldn’t live there without Daddy he said, “oh we could just go pick him up sometime.”  Yeah, right.
