London Eli Scout

making summer plans already

London is a lot like me.

She likes to know the plan for the day.

She loves to read.

And she has a fondness for placing human feelings onto stuffed objects.

And,

like me,

she is already thinking about this summer.

We had our first taste of watermelon yesterday

After which she announced,

“Hey, this summer,

let’s get a huge watermelon,

go to the yard,

get naked

and let daddy cut our watermelon with a sword.”

(For the record – I don’t recall there ever being a moment in family history where we all devoured watermelon clothes-less in our yard.

Yes, we have cut a watermelon open with a sword.

Yes, the children have consumed watermelon primarily unclothed.

No, the parents did not participate in this activity sans clothing.)
