ready set

I've been completely overwhelmed with all the sorting and selling, and seem to be suffering from a greatly diminished ability to focus on anything non-moving related. Luckily, my awesome parents came to spend some time with me last week and were very helpful - meaning they got to have fun with A so that I could focus on the aforementioned drudgery. My favorite memory of the week is my dad sitting on the couch facing the window and calling out to A all the shapes he could see in the clouds.

One other highlight, while sorting through some random scraps shoved into a drawer, was finding a little conversation I had copied down from last year...

C: Hurry...take a bite of your carrot. That's what good little bunnies do.

A: But bad little bunnies don't eat their carrots?

C: That's right.

A: I want to be a bad bunny.

Sheesh.

Hooray for parents! Hooray for a Dad who likes to look at clouds! (and might I say those pictured clouds are lovely) and finally hooray for kids whos cunning wit can get them out of eating undesired veggies.

That is great that your parents came to help. I love A's Comment.
I think we all want to be the bad bunny at times, and maybe we need to.
