The children and I had been planning a trip to the beach for today and we were so excited! I was upstairs getting dressed and I heard Starling shouting outside. I ran out to find her covered in mud! Ugh! I started to get mad at her but then she told me that Merlin had shoved her into the mud! That boy!
I found Merlin in his room playing with his dinosaurs and he pretended he didn’t know what I was talking about. He is so sneaky! I don’t know how he even got inside and cleaned up that fast.
We decided that we couldn’t very well leave him at home so he came to the beach with us but waited in the car with his summer reading books. The windows were all down but some people just overreact. I was scolded by several people when it was time to leave. Oh well, they need to mind their own business!
In all the hullaballoo I managed to leave Hummus at home strapped in his carseat! Ugh. He was fine when we ran back to pick him up!
I had a nice man take my picture in my new dress!
Hummus and Starling and I finally made it to the beach. I was exhausted! Starling had a wonderful time! She always looks so joyful on the beach!
Hummus had a good time deconstructing the sand castle that the children near us had spent the morning making. Their Mom needed to mind her own business as well!
Guess what? When we got back to the car Merlin was just fine, thank you, and he had finished his first book!
