I can't believe how fun it is for me to watch them be children, to try to look at things the way only children can and to be so hopeful. I think it must be this time of year when it starts to get a little cooler and we can venture outside a bit more often. It also might have something to do with reading Something Wicked This Way Comes around this time of year about 13 years ago. I don't think I have ever looked at childhood the same way again after reading that book. It makes me feel very wistful about my childhood and hopeful for my children.
*Jane was sobbing as she ran after Hannah crying that she wanted to play. It was so sad, I tired to explain to Hannah that the twins really wanted to play with her but, being ten I am sure she was not super interested in playing with five year olds. To her credit she did end up playing with the kids. Poor Jane, I hope the first few days of Kindergarten go well for her in the friends department.

I love all the pictures!
Howarth Park was the best. This Discovery playground reminds me of the Super-Playground in Sebastopol or whatever little town it was in on the way to the beach. Do you remember it?
Yes, I love that park, we wanted to go when we were in SR but we didn't get a chance. But we did go to Howarth Park, I'll post pictures soon.
I miss you!
P.S. Can you call me when you're at the park? Since it's like, 2 seconds away from me? And Jane looked so cute on the first day of school. I can't believe it!!
