Tonight I went for a walk with Jesse, Allie and Billy in my neighborhood. It was dark out. The sky looked like a raggedy grey blanet laid over a dark blue sheet. Through the holes in the blanket we could see Polaris and Mercury. Jesse and I were walking behind Allie and Billy and we came across this frog in the pavement. Jesse said, "A fwog!" and he bent over to pick it up. It hopped into the grass and he, still bent over, arms stretched out and downward towards the frog waddled after it through the grass in his bare little hobbit feet. For a few moments I watched him, looking just so boyish and silly. I thought, I could spend forever with him. Then he brought the frog over, held it out in front of him and said very proudly, "I brought you a frog!" while it peed on the sidewalk. I made him put it down and then we finished our walk. We sat on his trunk and he pointed out some constelations and stars he knew the big long names of. He told me about his trip to space camp in 7th grade and what field day was like back in Georgia. We laid there until the holes in grey blanket mended themselves and we couldn't see the blue sheets anymore. Then we headed inside.

I fell in love again x ten tonight. Tomorrow we're getting up early and spending the day together. We'll eat pretzels and play cards and go out for lunch.

I love summer.
