Mornings

Why do small children have to get up with the sun? We have done everything we can think of to block X's knowledge that the sun is rising. We have blackout curtains over the window and white noise to drown out the bird chorus. Nonetheless, this morning he was knocking on our door at 5:45. Often when he gets up too early we will bring him into bed with the ipad to collect a few more winks. Alas, it was not meant to be today. He found a youtube video of fire trucks driving around with lights and sirens on and played it over and over at high volume.

Work is tough. I am 95% burned out, commuting past beautiful seascapes to work long hours. Sigh. Summer reading hasn't even started yet! This weekend, I am NOT going to the office and we will be going to the beach. Damnit.

Ben Parker Elementary, where we make our weekly farmer's market run.

This kid is fearless. This is a 30 foot slide.
