It is again this time of the year. I'm not quite sure if it's my favorite, because I have a lot of favorites in the year. One that does stick in my mind though is the fresh green grass (when it's so new and soft) and when the sun stays out longer in the evening. I guess that would be now.
It was such a yucky weekend, so to see the sun finally poke it's head out on Sunday afternoon was wonderful. We were able to sit outside some, enjoy some beverages with friends, and grill some food. This picture just says "relaxing" to me.
We are also fans of sharing things around our house. One of the things we like to share is pinkeye. Tyler was home last Tuesday with it, and Connor woke up with a nasty case of it on Sunday. This is nothing compared to what his eye looked like in the morning. Poor guy, and he HATES the eye drops we have to give him. He will fight with every ounce of his strength to just not have those drops put in his eyes. By the way, I think he is stronger than I am. (Sorry for the gross picture, but you really get the point).
As he got up this morning, I didn't think I should send him to daycare looking how he did. Although he had been on the drops for 24 hours (their rule) his eye was still pretty blood shot so he stayed home with me. I had a day of vacation planned anyway, so it wasn't too bad. I got some things done, and had a buddy with me who I spoiled all day long.
Connor knows I'm a total pushover for him when we're alone, so as I stopped at Casey's to get gas, he asked for a donut. I didn't mind at all, and let him pick out whatever he wanted. He picked out powdered donuts and we ate them on the deck. He shared one with me, because he said I was his friend.
Most of all, I'm enjoying getting back to my family. I've missed truly enjoying them.
