It’s strange being a family of four–especially since Robin and I both come from families of four. And now we’ve got our own family of four. And tonight was a first for our family. Here’s what happened:

After coming home from the open house at Micah’s preschool, we all got out of the car. I had Macy’s car seat and Robin had unbuckled Micah. Robin started walking toward the curb, so I asked, “Whatcha doin’?”

Robin said, “Getting the mail.”

I said, “Ok, I’ll let the kids in the house.”

And then I stopped and said to Robin, “Whoa! That was weird!”

I guess this won’t be the last time I ever talk about “the kids.”
