We've Got a Plan

Tomorrow we've got plans, Janney, Asher and I are planning a picnic out by the front fence so we can watch the trucks pave our highway.

Ya, I know, funny.

But when Trent, Myles and Rourke were little, we spent SOO many days just watching trucks pave roads, or one time, they dug up the road, laid new pipes and wires and then rebuilt the road. It was a month long project and almost every day I'd take the boys up to the end of the block to spend some time and see the progress.

So, tomorrow I start this tradition with the next batch. Today, Asher and I took a walk down to where they were working today, in front of the llamas.  He's got a new word "uks"  that's the center portion of trucks.  This word is added to his other vocabulary which includes

su = soother
shus = shoes
Ror = Rourke
ba = ball
bu = pool
Mama = That's ME.. that's what he calls me!!

and there's now = meow for cats and kittens but he doesn't bark yet though he loves the dogs.

I've got to go, I'm making bread for our picnic sandwiches.

Hey, I loved to do that with my kids. I wanted them to understand a little bit of that part of the world they wouldn't be learning in books. My father was an excavating contractor, so I was able to tell the kids an awful lot about what was going on on the job sites and why.
