Carpe Diem #941 Heart The blue-eyed, blond haired boy stole my heart when he was just a kicking fetus. The love continued to grow as we watched him coo, then talk his special talk. Grandaddy, (Nandad) always let him play with the tool box. Screwdrivers were i-dikers. Caboose was bagoose. The Playskool Tyke Bike was and is nooden-nooden. When looking for someone, he would say their name in a sing song, quizzical fashion while shaking his head in a negative fashion. He now uses words he learned during his college and grad school years two decades ago. These words are not nearly as fun as those precious made up toddler words. thunderclap acts as a bossy stormhorn rainbrella time! © Janice 'petra domina' Adcock Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI
I empathise with those poor birds, Janice - I too am waiting for autumn!
ReplyDeleteWe have had 10 days of 100 and above temperatures. Staying inside till last in the evening. Getting most of my steps on machines in the air conditioned fitness center here at the apartment.
DeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteSimply true (for you over there. I can only dream of the summer as we seem to be in permanent autumn! sorry to have missed a few; was in Edin and only had the tablet with. Horrid to type on those things!!!) YAM xx
Yes, I cannot imagine being perpetual fall tempts. Hubby would love it.
DeleteNicely done! I like that you tie summer and autumn together that way. We wait all winter for summer, and then we complain about the heat and wait for winter.
ReplyDeletePretty much!
DeleteAh gee, Poor you in that heat...we've hit autumn temps in July here. hope the heatwave lifts soon
ReplyDeleteLooks like about 5 more triple digit days then a break for now. We won't see much fall till late September or later. That is if you can call 80 fall temperatures. Air conditioning makes it work. Workers have been putting new landscaping this week. I do not know how they can dig those holes in rocky soil in this heat.
DeleteA beauty

DeleteI like this. This heat is flashing me forward too:)

DeleteBeautiful Janice !
ReplyDeleteThanks, Milan. I took a walk and actually saw birds just sitting with their beaks open.
DeleteFor sure.
