Recently, we have been enduring uncharacteristically HOT weather here in Rhode Island. So after a few consecutive days of over 90 degree weather, it was starting to take a "toll" on everyone's attitudes, especially mine for some reason. Greg decided that it would be so much fun to get out of the air conditioned apartment and take a walk on the Cliffwalk with a hot, panting 90lb labrador, a sleepy two year old, and 5 mo old that just wants to roll around. We pack ourselves in a car with minimal air conditioning and off we go to the Cliffwalk. I'm sitting in the car, thinking to myself, "this is such a bad idea". The whole 3 mile trip, I kept wanting to turn around and go back home, but then something happend in the back seat of the car.
"PEEK-A-BOO!!" (giggles) "PEEK-A-BOO KASSI!!" (giggles)
We park the car at the Cliffwalk and Greg and I pretend not to hear Baylee and Kassidy playing peek-a-boo in the back seat of the car. These two girls didn't care if it's 100 degrees, they just wanted to have fun. Immediately, my eyes began to tear up. Listening to their laughter and joy for one another. Happiness filled the car and all attitudes flew out the window.
Needless to say, we had a good walk...
