what a sweet way to start the day!
as always, i drove andi to school this morning ... he had to be in a bit early, and despite having hallowe'en in the air, he was dressed as always - sweatshirt, jeans, etc.. when pressed why he was not wearing a costume, knowing full well that his class was having a little celebration today, he whipped out a handmade NYPD badge - colorful, bright, and precise - and answered that he was going as an undercover agent ...
as we got into the car, he ecstatically informed me how much he 'loves days like today'. he told me that when it is slightly cool, and you can see your breath, and the sun is out, it is obvious that it's going to be a great day - that, in fact, you'll be 'jolly' even if something goes wrong! recess will be great because it's perfect soccer weather, there's a party at school, and everyone is going to be in a good mood ... and there will be lots of candy, one of his principal food groups!
don't you wish you were ten again?
