early fall evenings

It’s early fall and that means afternoons and evenings are full of trying to find some balance between letting kids be kids, homework, and after school activities. It really doesn’t seem there is time for all of it! Yesterday I pulled out some pumpkins and an array of different colored faux fall leaves. You call it too early perhaps? I say anything after Labor Day is fair game. I have to say the bright orange, red, and yellow, plus a pumpkin candel really lifted my mood. White chicken chili for dinner. Soups on the menu for practically a week. Which I think is insane because its 95 degrees but after years in this part of Florida I am a proud participant of the Kick Down the Air and Fake it Till You Make it Club. This evening was full of reading, and writing. Proud Lego Batman P.J. wearing, and finding  belly buttons along with figuring out how old we are. Asher thinks he is ten now(see above). I feel a great sense of anticipation for all God has in store, for me, for those around me, for the weather.
