Raking the fall leaves proves to be a very fun activity for all involved, even if at first it sounds like a drag! Especially when the amount of leaves is endless!!! And this isn't all the leaves. There are many more to fall still from the trees. Can you see William's enthusiam? He lightens up a little as you'll see when you scroll down.
This is just a portion of our back yard. It's too big for my camera lens.
You must know that this is Tommy's own pile that he raked for himself as big brother would have nothing to do with little brother messing up his piles. So where does William get away with messing up Tommy's hard work??? Yes that is Tommy's leg sticking up from the pile!
Yesterday our family gathered in a small room off the church hallway so Brian could be set apart for a new calling. As we were sitting down, Tommy looked up and said, "Mom, how are they going to split Dad apart?" He didn't ask the question with any concern in his voice so either he didn't care if his Dad got split apart or he figured it would happen and everything would still be alright. Too funny...made us all laugh!
Tommy came home from school today so excited about the fact that he had art. He pulled out his zerox of a Picasso that he colored with different kinds of crayons and proceeded to tell me about about "Polano" and how he used a lot of bright color in his paintings and how he (Tommy) blended two colors over some lines to make it look like x-rays. His interest in art is amazing me and I love to see what he comes home with.
