pre-summer nights dream


School is almost out (6 more days!!!) and last night I had yet another glimpse into why I love summer so much! After I had given the boys their showers they could hear a cricket out the back door and were determined to find it! They thought for sure the cricket was hiding under the deck and so they made mommy dig out the flashlights and they went hunting. They asked for a jar but they never found the noisy culprit. He was a good hider! This little escapade did make me long for summer even more then I already did before, though. The lazy evenings at home, staying outside much later then you should and wearing the boys out as much as possible and then keeping your fingers crossed that they sleep in the next morning! It's gonna be SO much fun!!!!

Remember that old Seseme street episode when Bert and Ernie are fishing in a boat and all Ernie has to do is yell "HHEEERRREEEE Fishy fishy fishy" and a fish would flop into the boat? Maybe that would work for the boy's cricket hunts ... "HHEEERRREEEE Little Cricket Cricket Cricket" and then it hops into the jar!!!!!!
