Cutie Pie

Remember back in July

when Franchesca was taking drivers training?

I could refer to the humid, mid 90 degree, sun shiny weather

but that would include every day from May through well,

last week.

Anyway.

This summer the girls have taken a liking to caring for this little guy.

(We do not use the term baby sitting for he is NOT a baby).

AJ spent a lot of time with him during drivers training

since we were so close to his house.

This particular day we picked him up

and he came along to pick up "Franjessca".

 The heat was troubling for all of us

but playing with a ball while we waited

kept at least Cutie Pie (and I) less grumpy.

AJ and Solomon sat in the van with every window

and door open, pouting about the heat.

CAN YOU IMAGINE???

Me either.

Cutie Pie is fun to have in the vehicle.

Lots of questions.

My favorite from that day was

"Moose (AJ), why does everybody call you Moose"?

Last week they were at his house listening to a cd while playing.

The song was "Indescribable" in a kids version,

referring to God.

He loves to sing

and has the sweetest voice

and kept singing out "Interflamable" with the chorus

and chose not to believe the girls when they gently told him otherwise.

Below is Solomon and a brother of Cutie Pie.

Lets call him Brother Blue Eyes.

After school got out, my friend and I took

these 2 boys out for some fun.

They got to choose. Everything.

Fish feeding frenzy at Craig's Cruisers.

 All of these tickets were turned in a big bag of candy

and a tiny rubber ball.

 They initiated me, immersion style

to Culver's.

Good thing I was too carsick to be hungry

as their vegetarian selection is slim.

 Lots of ketchup is very important at Culver's.

Now. The custard....

like velvet. 

A lovely, hot summer night of fun.

Not what a ladies night out would look like,

but then.
