Jacob arrived just as I was preparing to send Corwin out for the bus so we just passed him straight through house from the porch door to the front door. Immedaitely after they left Charles came over to help me shut the door. He went back to play for a few minutes but then he decided that he wanted to go outside. He went to the front door and we went out but he quickly realized that it was the wrong door. So we went back inside and over to the door into the garage. That was the right door because Charles go to press the button to make the garage door go up. He likes that. (Mom tells me that when she got Charles home today he spent some time making the door go up and down). Charles went out onto the driveway and just stood there, wandering a bit and soaking in the crisp morning air wearing just a tie die shirt and a diaper. I had thought that he would quickly become chilled and want to go back inside but not our Charles, nuclear furnace boy. The bus was a bit late today so Charles and I were out for a while before Jacorobwin left. Charles did say “bus” when it showed up. Although it didn’t seem to me that Charles was paying attention he wanted in right after big brother had left. I’m glad that Charles didn’t insist on getting on the bus himself.
