The kids went for their first hot air ballon ride today and I forgot the camera of course. It'll always be etched in my mind, though, Ari's little fingers gripping the edge of the basket while the other hand pumped wildly, waving down at her speck of a brother on the ground. The balloon was tethered so we went up and up and up and then down and down. She giggled and laughed while Donovan went up and she jumped and shouted pointing at him. He ran toward me when they'd brought him down and they told everyone on the walk home that they'd just been way up in the air. It was so much fun. Tomorrow is easter and even though we don't celebrate the resurrection of jesus we do celebrate the spring and the fertility of it all. Despite our money situation the easter bunny will make an appearance before they kids wake up.
I've stopped feeling like a zoo keeper. Funny, it's always easier on the weekends.
