Last night if I had videoed our evening it would have appeared to be perfect-- and it was as close as we get to perfect- this I'm sure of. By the time Chet got home from work, I had dinner cooking, house cleaned up (kind of!) the deck swept and hosed off, Porter napped, animals (except dogs) fed, the Visiting Teachers had been over, and me and Porter were snuggling watching Thomas the Train (I hate those videos!) We ate dinner, then went for a walk, then we helped Porter work on his pedaling skills on his bike he is for sure getting the hang of it-- and is soo excited when it works right!!! - --
Then we sat on the deck and soaked up the cool evening air-- (with no wind -miracle !) I finally went in to take a shower-- and get ready for bed. --
The perfect evening - or as close to as we get these days- the only problem was the time-- yes the time-- we didn't start eating dinner until 9:00 p.m. -- we went for our walk around 9:45-- and were sitting on the deck at 11:00 p.m.-- I guess when you don't get to begin your evening until 9:00 it puts you 4 hours behind the rest of the world who's perfect evenings begin around 5:00 --
But we'll take it-- !!!

you gotta take those perfect evenings when you can get them -- even if they don't start til 9pm. yay that you could stay out there that long -- without getting eaten alive by mosquitoes or freezing to death. sounds perfect to me.
The only bad thing about a perfect evening starting at 9 pm is that the next day starts so dang early! Love the perfect evening, though.
I would love a perfect evening like that just once! You accomplished a lot little miss! How fun!!!
