Derek rigged up a makeshift swing for the kids. Garden hose, two holes drilled in a piece of wood, and some kind of metal thingy securing it around the pine tree.
I wish I could swing on it. It goes all crazy in huge, swirly circles. The kids LOVE it. (And I'm a worrier, so believe me, it's very safe and secure.)
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Here's what I wrote in my first post: "Howdy - I'm hoping this will eventually be a blog about our family - life with two kids 21 months apart - Down syndrome - living simply - couponing - and whatever else comes up!" Yep. That's it so far!

Love them. My mom made us a tire swing when we were kids. That's the stuff of magical summer memories.
