So it begins

This evening marks the beginning of easier bath time, great fun for my
kiddos, and bits of time for me to put up my feet and knit. Yes, the
swimming pool has been inflated. Our first week of upper 80's-90's
convinced us to welcome in the season of water play. Oh, and if you're
wondering about the easier bath part, when it's hot enough to swim
then it's hot enough to get lathered up and rinsed from the hose.

Also, I'm elated that my abundant basil plants which froze in all the
snow and freezing temps this winter reseeded and are now very popping
up healthily scattered over my garden. Yahoo! So I'm transplanting to
other containers, potting for gifts, and generally having a blast.

I'm sitting under the fan, watching girls thru the back door,
listening to Jack Johnson and about to knit. Glory!
And they're just going to have to put up with leftovers for dinner.
