Day 20

I woke up to the sound of children playing on the sidewalk outside our open window. In addition to the warm yellow sun streaming in, I could tell it was going to be a beautiful day by the laughter in their voices as they chased each other down the street on scooters and three-wheelers. We joined the neighborhood fun just a little while later for our own sidewalk parade, and then a longer adventure out on the bike trail. My son rang his bell when faster bikers passed him and the metro roared in the open air. Those little ones must be inside for dinner now, but I can hear the bounce of a basketball next door, the swishing of a broom, and some whistling, too, as the day winds down.
