Well, rest assured we arrived in southwestern Washington exactly as planned. During our three day stay, we relished civilization\u2019s fast, reliable internet service, indoor plumbing, normal beds and no Idaho dust gumming up the works.<\/p>\n<p>And we relished our time with two grandnieces, ages 5 and 2, and two grandnephews,1 1\/2-year-old twin boys. As you can imagine, the weekend was very, very, very, very busy. I could be a very or two short, but you get the gist.<\/p>\n<p>The weekend was also a shocking revelation of how much my life has changed since 2003, the last year I lived in Kidland, after raising two children and teaching elementary school for twenty-five years. But with my kiddos being young adults, no more volunteering in the church nursery because of my back, and being out of the classroom for six years, I\u2019d kinda forgotten how active and utterly delightful little people are.<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend refreshed my memory on all fronts. I enjoyed more short-armed hugs and read more picture books than I\u2019ve experienced in the past decade. I witnessed the wonder of drinking from the garden hose, and the utter tragedy of being told no by an adult who doesn\u2019t understand how important it is to go outside right now, right now, right now.<\/p>\n<p>Now that we\u2019re back in Iowa, it\u2019s quiet enough to peck out a blog post, an exercise frequently interrupted during the weekend by important activities like exploring a creek, digging potatoes, jingling wind chimes, harassing dogs, and smearing yogurt on the tablecloth. My office is silent, but I still see in their four sweet, young faces, reminders of the children their parents were, hints of their grandparents\u2019 personalities, and the history of our family living in a new, very busy, very young generation.<\/p>\n<p>I could use a short-armed hug right about now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did the gap between blog posts have you wondering if the Philos took a wrong turn on vacation and disappeared?
