For some reason our accident prone child was carrying the hand saw. (Hubby and JT were carrying the tree, I was busy snapping pictures, and giving it to my 6 year old made me think OSHA would be jumping out of the woods and serving me with a fine, so someone had to carry it.)
ED's school friend was walking up the hill, towards us, also carrying a hand saw.
The boys saw each other, they yelled their names, and then :::gasp::: they began to run towards each other, saws in hand, raising their arms to hug each other.
"Put down the hand saws before you hug each other", I yelled.
:::sigh::: The book I could fill, with all the phrases I've said, as a parent, the sayings I never imagined coming from my lips.
