let me out.

this is how excursions out of the house go for us.

they run away from me as fast as they can.

this is true in fields or parking lots.

there's always something on the ground(it's their level, ya know)

to examine, touch, almost get your hand stuck in.

there's some kind of attempt to share something,

though it usually ends in tears.

(sweet morgan was sharing this leaf with em...she took it and then threw it on the ground rudely.

the tears came from emily when i sat her butt on the ground in timeout.)

then they start figuring out ways to climb, crawl, sneak out

and away from wherever they are.

(aiden actually saw the moon in the sky and thought he could "climb up and get it!")

and then when i tell them to do something,

they're suddenly soooo tired.

(i told aiden he couldn't have the baseball--hello! gonna kill someone with it! i told him to come

grab his drink and jacket so we could go..."my too tired, mom!")

thanks for inviting us out to baseball practice tari!

i had fun when i wasn't yelling at the kids to get back here!! :)

ha ha.

you'll understand(and your friend will thank me) if i decline

coming again next week.

HA!

baseball practice photos are posted on the photo blog,

if you're interested in seeing the actual reason for our outting.
