Pure Joy

This week, leaves sprung out onto the trees. I have to say that the morning I wake up and see leaves on the trees is one of the most blissful days of the year. It never ceases to put me into a place of hope, awe, and pure joy over the wonder of it. We went to Trader Joe's today. C-man, of course, got a balloon. Then he lost it in the parking garage. And then Beerman retrieved it again. The wails of horror became squeals of joy. Oh, to be young again. Another moment of joy came when the Taylorfornians sent an awesome edible bouquet. C-man was so excited, that despite having just thrown down approximately a pound of bacon, proceeded to go to town on the grapes. A chocolate-covered strawberry got thrown in for good measure.
