When dinner is over, the dishes are done, and the sun is just ducking behind the trees, I love to steal a few minutes on the front porch swing. The boys are usually playing in the back yard. So it is often just me and my husband, or me and Lucky (my kitty). Enjoying the quiet. Definitely a finer thing.
Tonight, though, the swing will be empty.
We’ll all be out back, celebrating my son’s fifth birthday with a neighborhood cookout. There will be a campfire, hotdogs, marshmallows, and tents, good friends, light sabers, and lots of boys. Oh, and of course, cake and balloons, which the birthday boy wanted to see the minute he woke up this morning.
Guess I’d better get cracking! There’s a party to throw! Which, by the way, is another finer thing in life!!
