Casting Lines, Catching Z's, and Chasing Rainbows
Good
morning.
The boys and
I went fishing again yesterday — or maybe I should say they went fishing, and I
spent the morning sitting in Charlie’s seat taking pictures. After we got the
boat back home and did all the little chores that come with it, we went over to
my house to join the girls.
Charlie and
Trent were out on the patio cleaning fish when the girls decided they were
ready to head home. By the time I got back, Charlie asked me to cook up some of
the fish for dinner. Well, while I was busy in the kitchen, my two fishermen —
ages 13 and 14 — fell fast asleep on me!
Now, mind
you, I was up before either one of them, stayed out in the sun just as long as
they did, and here I was still going strong while they were out like lights. Of
course, I have no idea what time they finally went to bed — they might’ve been
up all night playing Xbox.
It was a
good day, the kind of day that makes summer feel endless and sweet. Today,
Charlie is out cutting grass, so I’ve got a little break to rest up — can’t let
them get too far ahead of Pawpaw!
I was
telling Lauren this morning what a good summer it’s been. School will start
back soon, and I know I’ll miss all these busy, everyday adventures.
This morning’s photo was taken on Beach Blvd
here in Pascagoula. I still can’t believe I was able to catch this shot — a
fisherman in the early light, with a rainbow standing watch behind him.
