Tiller just said to me, “Mama, you sure do make great paper airplanes.”
I just love the low-tech paper airplanes. You fold a couple for each kid (making sure to reinforce with some Scotch tape, or else you will spend all afternoon refolding them) and then send them off to decorate them with crayons and markers. Then it’s off to the backyard for flights, while I sit inside sneezing me head off.
They totally get into it! Added plus: Tiller is flying hers in her ballet tutu. Rollie just improvised decorating his by taping a Hot Wheels car to the top of it.
Fuckin’ awesome.
Then Rollie said, “You do make the best paper airplanes, you and Daddy.”
WHAT?!
I feel that there will be a bit of an airshow out back this weekend. The Dogwood Girl fleet WILL dominate.
