Into Fall...

I have been totally slowed down in "blogging" by feeling the need to catch up! But, fall is just too fun of a time to miss the "now"! So...here goes...These pictures capture a typical after school moment these days. After we walk home from the bus stop in the afternoon with Nathan we often stay outside for a little bit. I sit on the porch steps and go through Nathan's backpack--while I hear his "report" of the day, and we all "decompress" a little bit before going in to fix dinner!

Often we are most happy around here these days when we're all together, but each one busy doing their own thing.
