The Norm


Clark is home. We are relieved. Nelson had about all he could take. A few hours before Clark arrived he went into major meltdown mode and when I probed him of the problem, he said through tears, "I just want things like they were in the old days... You know, with the four of us, not just the three of us." Me too.
So, now they are.
First thing on the agenda, after all the stories of our travels up north, we headed to the beach. We met our neighbors and the kids had an awesome time in the surf. The heat and humidity is so fierce right now that we ate our picnic and headed back home. Honestly, I know I say this in almost every post, but it is beyond ridiculous at this point. Being a northern girl I just can barely take another day of it, let alone another summer...
