This morning we heard the garbabe truck & Haze went flying out the door to make sure he could see him dump a few cans. When the garbage man saw us, he rolled his window down & asked Haze, "Do you want a coloring book, Buddy?" To which Haze replied (with a big ol' grin), "Yeah!!" And then the garbage man said, "Do this with your arm, Bud," while pumping his arm up & down to signal the horn. So Haze did just that & got a honk from the garbage truck! And then a few more waves! He was in heaven! What a nice garbage man!
When we went to drop Haze off at school, I let Nora sit on the seat by him. (Preschool is less than a mile away.) They both thought it was the neatest thing in the world. They are cute little happy friends.
After Haze went to school, me & Nora came back home and played. I didn't clean or run errands or bustle around. I just played. Me & Nora sang "Child of God," I watched her play with her babies, we visited each other, we put necklaces on. But mostly I just watched her be. I watched her little hands grip the bars on the trampoline. I watched her hair bounce wildly up & down as she jumped. I watched her eyes figure out how to get the baby through the doll house door. I listened to her say, "Pay-rent ky an deer" ("parents kind and dear") over and over. I listened to her get frustrated and giggle and even breathe. I just soaked it all in. I wish she was this little forever and ever. I love my babies so much.
