Jumping Rope

This afternoon Caroline was jumping rope in the cul-de-sac. I asked for the jump rope and did some little rope tricks, etc. Nothing amazing, but the children were blown away by my jumping rope technique.

"Mom is the greatest!"Charles yelled, while Jonathan and Caroline fought for turns to try next. They failed miserably, and simply gazed in awe as I retrieved the rope and began again going through my tricks.

What can I say? On the island of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
