You've Got to Pick Up the Pieces

I love how daylight savings time comes and goes, and the kids could care less. Where does the free hour go? We certainly do not get the benefit of it. I had to explain it to Rileigh this morning, but I know it did not sink in. I recognize the look. Oh, and I know, time is not something easily grasped. Especially when we put artificial values to it. So, Rileigh and I used up some time, that just blew away in the wind with that hour we deposited last spring and were supposed to reap this morning.
For Halloween, we helped Grandpa answer the door. Ethan enjoyed the job immensely. He jumped up at every ring and knock. However, he was a bit stingy, in that he gave each bag one piece of candy. So we had to help him with his dispersal. Riles was not impressed with the masks and costumes. Having said that, she was interested enough to view from behind a few people: peeking from around corners, and people. Safely viewing the visitors from behind the shield of others, and walls.
