As much as we all hate to admit it, the Minnesota winters are going to come along to freeze our tushies off in a few short months. In honor of the inevitable change of weather and Clara's new found ability to swim (I was so proud I could barely keep from calling to local papers to announce this amazing development) we made picnic plans at Snail Lake with Clara's buddies Ford and Veronica. Although this event happened a few weeks ago, my Mom duties have prevented me from a few spare moments to unload the digital camera. Which leads to me a sad realization, each and every day I have a personal 5 minute task of some sort planned ... either I am a poor manager of time, or the two bosses I work for require much of my attention, because at the end of the week I have accumulated about 33.5 hours of personal 5 minute tasks that never got done.
At least I know my kids had plenty of time for fun, as evidenced in these pictures. Good-bye summer, see you next year.
p.s should you wish to congratulate me on Clara learning to swim (underwater even!!!! can you believe it?!), don't hesitate to drop me a post with your astonished congratulations.

Love it! I put photo #2 on my work desktop.
Learning to swim is kind of an amazing milestone, isn't it? Way to go, Clara!
Way to go Miss Clara.... that is quite a big accomplishment!
I can hardly believe that summer is over and like you I feel that my two bosses require much of my attention.... therefore leaving many of my tasks unfinished...
I love your story of the poop waiver and dinking around....
Hee hee
