Yep

On our way to the library this morning we stopped to get the mail.  There was a letter!  A real, handwritten letter full of news from one of my college roommates.  That was a treat.
We came home with bags full of books.  One picture book I get over and over for the kids is Roxaboxen by Alice McLerran.  It's all about kids using their imaginations- wonder of wonders!
I also got a stack of books by Annie Dillard, who was recommended to me over the weekend.  I haven't read anything by her so I'm trying fiction, poetry, and non-fiction.  I'd really like to settle down this afternoon and read but I think that will have to wait.
When we got home, Samuel took his boots off and showed me a hole in his sock.  All of a sudden I remembered hearing something earlier in the morning about scissors and socks.  Click.
"Sam!  Did you cut that hole in your sock???"
"Yep!"
What else could I do but take a picture and make a mental note to learn how to darn socks?
