After dropping the girls off at violin lessons this afternoon, I took the boys to the new North Boulder Library and parked right in front of an apartment that we lived in for two years. It has been exactly a decade since the one toddler days we spent there, but, as I did then, I still have a three year old.

Vacation vibes: Lots of family trips lately, lots of lovely bonding, but it is time to park the traveling circus and put a romantic getaway on deck.

I have beneficially and appropriately kept and corralled many, many seasons and sizes of duds and doo-dads, but this again?
