The Gift


Last week, it was time for our ymca walk. That meant coats. So I started in on my rhyming. Stuff like, "Don't pet a goat, go get your coat." and "No time to float, just get your coat." The kids groan and beg me to stop, but as I told them, "I'm very good at this." Little miss mp shook her head and said, "It's a dark gift."
I loved that comment but I do disagree, my rhyming gift is all goodness and light. Obviously.

Your rhyming isn't bad, but you're no Tupac. However, I LOVE the dark gift comment.
(See my invite/comment on your previous message.)

I know I'm not of Tupac quality, but when they groan and beg me to stop, I think they're going too far.

I love the comment. It shows wit, and I like that in a kid. Also wanted to say I am back in blogging mode, friend, after a six month hiatus for which there was no good reason.

really great B&B pic. I particularly like the other people in the reflection who may or may not be enjoying the juxtaposition.

Don't you love the BEAN? Alison, David, Jonathan, and J's friend Malwin who's visiting from Germany, were all up in Chicago last week and we spent a long time shooting pictures at this very spot!
Where are we going to have a get-together? We must have one asap!
