Okay, so I forgot that he needs notebooks, pens & pencils. So back out we went today to finish up the back to school shopping. I’ve only had to do this BTS a couple of times so give me a break. Hopefully, I have not forgotten anything else…
You’re probably wondering about the picture… Like I say, the boy cracks me up and always had. Matt’s always had an exceptionally witty sense of humor and he cracked his mother up more than anyone. Very rarely did a family dinner go by with Matt doing or saying something that would make the whole family laugh. I can still hear his mother laughing. She had a wonderful laugh that came from somewhere deep within her. It’s one of the things that I miss most about her. Anyhow, last night was no exception and Matt was up to his usual antics.
The two of us were quietly sitting there having dinner. It was nothing much, just some hotdogs, potato salad, fruit and chips. I was zoned out and staring off into space. I was thinking about something and was not even aware of what was happening around me. All of a sudden I heard Matt giggle. It was a muffled giggle, however. It was strange enough to knock me out of my trance and get my attention. When I looked up, this is what I saw. Yes, those are grapes! Nineteen of them to be exact! There’s never a dull moment with Little Brother at the table.
The boys club gets busted up tonight. Baby girl will be home from camp tonight. She’s finished her job up at 4-H camp and is on her way home right now. It’s been a solid year since we have had her at home on a fulltime basis. I’ve enjoyed it being just the boys but am happy to have her home. Yes, it will take a bit of getting used to having her here but we love her and will make it work.
