It felt like we went from summer weather of 80+ to cool, rainy fall in the blink of an eye. I am all for fall. It's my favorite season. I love the cool brisk mornings, the need for a sweatshirt and the pleasant, almost warm afternoons. The weather we have been having the past two weeks isn't really the fall weather I know and love. Maybe that's because the 3 little children that reside in my house are going a bit stir crazy, which in turn means I am going a bit crazy. I can feel the energy radiating off them and the need to get out and stretch their muscles. The fighting and screaming/crying over every little, teeny tiny thing is at an all time high. I am actually hearing "Elliott touched me" and "No, Banon do it" tattling going on between Baron and Elliott. I am definitely feeling my mom patience being tested (and occasionally found wanting) these past couple weeks. They just don't understand why I don't send them out to play but it's hard to do when there is rain and wind gust in the 20 mph range (and up). Mom frowns up the idea of her little ones getting soaked to the bone and possibly blown over the fence. These poor kids had such a great summer and pretty much complete freedom to go in and out of our fenced yard at their leisure. Hopefully the rain will let up for a little while and we can resume some much missed outside play. Wish me luck ;)
On the flip side, the yard is loving the wet and greening up nicely!
