A stolen Friday

Last Friday Shy was out of school for the Easter Holiday. BigDaddy got all the way to the job site and was then sent home due to rain so.... we stole a Friday!

BigDaddy spent a couple of hours in the garage working on my scraproom desk
Shy jumped on her trampoline trying to perfect a "flippie"
I cleaned up around the house....we stole a Friday

After we finished our own little projects we came
together for a game of horseshoes, won by BigDaddy...of course
We stole a Friday

A conversation between BigDaddy and Shy
BigDaddy (digging something up out of the back yard

Shy: What is that?
BigDaddy: It's a marble...a toy children would play with when they played outside all day
Shy: Can I have it?
BigDaddy: You can't have it, children who played with this played outside all day...you barely come outside for a couple of hours.
Shy: Yes I will
BigDaddy: You will play outside for a few hours?
Shy: Yes
BigDaddy: Okay, here you go

We stole a Friday


About a hour later Shy went in the house back to video games...BigDaddy and myself were still outside soaking up the beautiful day, so BigDaddy went inside and brought her back out...she stayed outside the rest of the afternoon and was happy about it! BigDaddy's influence is being felt, appreciated, and most certainly needed...all because...

We stole a Friday!
