She is lying on my desk ready to convey words of wisdom through her eyes. When I walk in the room after grueling hours of school work with the kiddos she stands to greet me.
She has kept my laptop warm and managed to knock every pencil and my camera cord onto the floor.
She decides that sharing my work space is not an option and she jumps onto the bed and stares at the side of my face. I hear her thoughts...
"Are you really going to play on that thing, rather than fold these clothes? If it will help you to change your mind, I'll rub on them and toss them to the ground, too. Then the dogs can run back and forth across them."
"Reading this book about the history of cotton would be a much better use of your time."
"Are you listening to me? Or shall I push your ice tea off the desk?"
"I give up...you are impossible and I need a cat nap. I hope you don't mind if I knead the pages of this book until I drift off."
Now that she has quit staring at me I'll get busy posting my new Chocolate Gingerbread Waffle Recipe.
Hammock - an elevated tract of land rising above the general level of a marsh region. Or in other words, where we call home. This is a record of our life, or the "tracks" we leave there. We are the parents of four children. We home school and do other crazy things like raise rabbits, garden, fish, hunt and spend a lot of time together. Just as animals leave tracks in the marsh near our home, we leave tracks here for you to read and hopefully enjoy. Hammock Track Tales is updated almost daily.
