Look at those devious grins! Paige and Claire have been planning for a month now to switch rooms on April Fool's Day! They really think they'll be able to pull it off. . . hmm, I don't want to disillusion them because I can tell them apart in an instance. We tried really hard to make them look as alike as possible. This was fun for me, because they haven't wanted to be "twinny" in a long time. I loved making them all matchy right down to the pig tail holders. Ike and Ava are full of April Fools' jokes -- "There's a spider in your hair!" "Brom ate your pillow.", and so on and so on (all day). They barely wait for the joke to set in for screaming all giggly, "Ap-wil Fool's!"
This is not an April Fool's. This happens almost every evening. These are our pet deer -- there's about seven that gather in our yard at dusk. In the morning we have a few pheasants that run along that back hedge row. It is fascinating to see them so "tame". They won't let us near them, but they aren't really startled if we watch them quietly. Now my husband loves to ruin this serene Eden by pointing out how many he could shoot in one minute. Yuck.
