Rain and knitting

It's raining. A lovely gentle rain that is soaking the garden. So, I planned today as an indoor day. But Joe and Sam, dgs who are 4 and 3, keep running outside to play. They are staying here for a few days because it is Circus time and their family is busy!! And, I've not seen them in TWO whole weeks! 4H prep, then fair, then new baby, and now Circus! So, I politely requested to borrow them for a few just to enjoy their company. Big brother Jon, 10, is staying too; he needed LOTS of swim and bike time. I love watching them play in this perfect summer rain, my big guys are running and laughing with them. Me, I'm sitting on my vintage glider typing on my laptop. ?? The picture would be better if I picked up my knitting instead! I need to finish the scarf for the Red Scarf Project and the squares for the Victory Junction. Both are deadlines looming over me!

Exceptional day!

So far... everyone is in a pleasant mood, schoolwork is done, house chores are done, and we are ready for the little ones. ??? WHAT is going on? Please, Lord, let it continue!!!
