The Last Days of Summer
Posted by Dr. Cason on Friday, August 22nd, 2008
Evidence that summer is drawing to an end.
This sad little bath toy got tossed here I don’t know how many weeks ago.
Each day I passed him by and left him there.
Then the leaves fell and the rain dropped.
And he lay waiting.
Still.

Kyla- Oh don’t get me wrong the heat is still here. 85 all year long.
Vered- Mine on Wednesday. I’m actually looking foward to a more regular routine. 1st grade. Woo Hoo! She’s growing up.
Kat Stephensonon 23 Aug 2008 at 10:51 am 7Oh Sheila – This little bath toy laying there by himself makes he sad like the little playground creature sitting all alone and waiting for that “special” child to come.
Please pick this little fella up, wash him good, and put him in the bath with Jakey to play! He needs a friend. . . .

Dr. Casonon 25 Aug 2008 at 8:27 pm 10Kat- Oh girl okay you got me! I’ll wash it up and girl it to smiling boy.
Chris- It’s the only way I can post everyday. I try not to write a book. Just a teeny bit at a time.
Lance- Wednesday here is the first day. Glad and sad and yet glad again.
