A new season

Now the temperature is in the 40s or 50s (F) – sometimes, the 60s. The snow has melted. It’s easy to see that the yard is full of trash that has blown in from the street.

Some day, when Karin is available to watch Samuel – and night hasn’t yet descended – I’ll pick up the trash.

And then we’ll take Samuel out into the yard, because he’s walking now and has never explored the yard on foot.

And I’ll kick the soccer ball with him. Which he and I have been doing inside the house, with a certain tepidness.
