Cheap entertainment

It only takes one sound to get my girls to forget about what they're doing and come running. . .

First I hear chairs scraping against the floor,

then I see their faces plastered up against the sliding door,

so that maybe, just maybe, they can get a peek. . .

On good days the door is unlocked and they escape into the backyard where they climb up on their picnic table to get a good look. . .

Up over the fence. . .

a TRAIN!

"bye tain!"
