Fast Summer

Summer is nearing it's end and the boys have grown SO very much.

I keep pretending time is going slow, but I get the boys pictures taken and time tells in the photos. Parker is a "real boy" or shall I say kid and Cohen is no longer fit for baby, but toddler. Mommies wrinkles are deeper and I am more tired today than yesterday. Thank God for the twilight years to come, finally I will get a break!

Today was another WONDERFUL Mom day of AM park with a trail hike. Watching Parker yell "keep up" and Cohen stopping to pretend to smell the flowers. The sun was hot and I feared of not enough water and sunblock not of what True Hollywood Story was on next (thank you TIVO). I was more concerned with germs on the swings than the sweat dripping off my NO makeup wearin' 30 year old (almost 31) face. I slathered the kids in 50 block and realized when we got to the car my shoulders were a bit more than kissed from the sun . . . oops . . . again. We came home and the boys reluctantly napped. Instead of sleeping myself ON SATURDAY I might add. Mom called Netflix and looked up "What a tortoise owner needs to know" on the Internet, cleaned the bathroom, pre made lunch and dreamed of it being 6 pm so I could guilelessly have a glass of wine.

When the boys awoke I found myself nervous of them having too much sleep and not going to bed at a decent hour, so back to the park we went. Hitting an imaginary home run and doing secret hand shakes when you slide in to home. Teaching Cohen to yell "hey batta, batta" and listening to toddler cursing "awe man" when he dropped his water in the dirt. By the way when I say dirt I mean the red sandlot dirt in their nose, ears, hair all the while Cohen having a turd in his diaper. Home to change the stinker.

Andy's gone so Mamma no cookin'! Chic-fill-a for dinner and to have then run more in the parasite infested play structure. Whatever, Dads been gone for a week. No sleep or a small parasite? Small Parasite it is.

Came home popcorn and Peter Pan. Mamma smells like BO kids get a bath. Water the Garden and grass . . . hurry lawn grow.

6 pm WINE AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW . . .

only and hour and a half till stories, kisses, songs, hugs, and sleep.

Saturday done . . . Sunday on the way.

Love you all
