When I get in the car to take the kids to Sue's house, I'll usually start the car, and then buckle up. So, the car will beep a few times because the seat belt wasn't buckled at the instant the car started. Once in awhile, I'll buckle up first before starting the car, and then the car won't beep. But, John notices there was a change in the routine! He'll usually say something like "beeping". Ha, he doesn't miss anything.

I took the kids to London Park last night. There were some older kids there playing hide-and-seek around the playground equipment. John just loves to play with other kids to he joined in playing too. He'd over to the cart behind my bike and bury his head in the plastic covering and count, and then say ready or not here I come, and then kinda run around after the kids. I don't know if the other kids ever realized John was playing too!

In getting the kids ready for the park, I was putting John's socks on him, and all by herself, Hanna went into the laundry room and dug John's shoes out of the box! She is so sharp.

The play running at the Guthrie Theater all this month is Pride and Prejudice. I'd really like to see that. I'll have to see if we find a babysitter for the kids and try and go. There's another play in October at the Theater in the Round I really want to go to. It's Arcadia, by Tom Stoppard, my favorite playwright.
