So yesterday was just a perfect summer day here in Seattle. The girls were outside playing Barbies, and I was inside for some reason until it dawned on me...I should go play with them. So for about an hour we played Barbies outside on the grass. It was so fun!
The King and Queen sent our little rag tag team to hunt for the "Book of Magic". So we found a little square piece of wood and drew lines on it so it looked a book and hid it in a bush. And we found some little pieces of flower that were yellow and made them into the campfire. We made sleeping bags out of leaves, and Abby made little a backpack out of little strings. Maddie picked some little strawberries and we cooked them over the fire. We just laughed, and talked, and created stuff, and were creative. It was so much fun.
Lately I've really wanted to do something fun and creative. I've been writing down the good stories that I tell the girls, and maybe I'll publish a little book outside of the one I'm currently working on. Maybe a complition of little stories for the girls. Maybe something more. I think in general it's good to do something totally different for your brain, and since I'm no good at music or art, I think I might have found a hobby. Stayed tuned!

That is cool that you play Barbies with the girls. When I was little I could play barbies for hours. Dressing them and redressing them in the latest barbie fashion. Going on dates and driving in their sweet cars. Good times for sure! If you write a book for the girls, I want a copy!
What a cool dad you are Bud. You are a great example to me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and life.
