what have we started, helping each other and my older son

1. It started out like any other project then before we knew it we were in the midst of more pine needles than we thought existed! I wanted to just mow the lawns but we ended up raking the gardens too and filled a trailer load!

2. He finished cleaning up for me. I offered to help seeing as it was the project I'd started and he said to me looking all serious, "You get your butt out there and finish the job!" Then he burst out laughing and said, "No way!" So, I made some tea and goodies for us to snack on instead.

3. Chris called me back and he was in good spirits. I like it when he teases me. He was lighthearted and it felt good to talk to him. I look forward to more conversations with him.
