Summer nights

Tonight was one of those nights I wish I could capture in a jar and keep forever. After dinner, we went outside and Sam and Norah played on the swingset while Todd and Jacob tossed a baseball back and forth. It wasn't anything special, just a wonderful hour of family togetherness that I treasure. The sound of Sam and Norah laughing as he pushed her in her swing; the way Todd cheered for Jacob when he caught the baseball in his mitt; I wish there was some way I could bottle these moments and keep them on a shelf. There is nothing like a lazy summer evening spent in the backyard together. Good times...
