The Sweetest Time

In the afternoon from about 2:45 - 3:10 is one of my favorite times of the day. It's from the time the kids walk in from school and the time Melissa walks out to babysit. 

It's a loud crazy time with backpacks flying, shirts coming untucked, belts coming off, and shoes being kicked off. Then it's a  a mad dash to see what snacks they can find. For these teens lunch was a long time again. It is TIME. TO. EAT. 

All the while, I get hear about their day. Unlike the morning times, they are much more open to actually talking....holding a real conversation. In the mornings I get more grunts than actual words. 

It's a sweet time.....best time of the day.
