At Weeks End

I sit here at my desk looking out the window at the cloudy Friday sky. It has been beautiful all week. Hayden and Ryan have been able to enjoy every bit of it at their nanna's house (my mom and dad). They went home with my parents last Sunday, after a day at Six Flags.

I call everyday, twice a day to check in with them. Not that they want to talk to me. Hayden tells me yesterday, "mom, can't talk now. We are working in the garden." Then he hangs up on me. I called back and Ryan told me he didn't want to come home because the dogs would miss him if he left.

Let's just say, when they are 5 and above, I figure I will never have another Summer or Spring break with them. They love it at my parents house. What kid wouldn't though? CHICKENS, COWS, DOGS, RABBITS, GOATS, 4 PONDS FOR FISHING, 4-WHEELERS, AND 30 ACRES ALL TO THEMSELVES.

They go out in the morning. Come in for lunch and head back outside. They come in as the sun is setting to take a bath, eat dinner, and go to bed.

I am so glad they will have that in their life. I think they will have the best of both worlds. A great city life here in Dallas and the country life in Oklahoma.
