Bye-Bye Boxes

The boxes are gone. All of them! This weekend Mandy and Sam were upstairs cleaning out a closest and bringing several boxes down for Peyton and me to use as toys. We had more boxes to play with than ever before! Some of the boxes smelled like Mandy and Sam, plus other smells we were not used too. We enjoyed playing in the boxes, and Peyton and I played for hours with all the boxes. We set up obstacle courses and played tag. But now they the games are gone—a mere shadow of our imagination. Even the big box that Sam played in is gone. It is a sad day in our household.

Something is going on here. Sam and Mandy are cleaning things up like company is coming. I can’t imagine who is coming, but whenever they clean upstairs people show up. Other than cleaning out the boxes upstairs, and doing a little bit of yard work, Sam and Mandy slept all weekend. Mandy sleeps a lot. I feel like that is all she does any more. She still tries to play with us, but it’s just not the same.

Well, I think Mandy has a lot planned for today, because she started doing stuff around the house early. She says kids are coming today to play in our big tub. Maybe I will watch them from the safety of a window.

Oh, and Kara! We were thrilled to hear from you! We love all the comments, and would love to hear from more of you.
