Joe's Favorite Day

When we got home from church,
We grabbed a quick lunch,
Changed into grubby clothes,
And went for a hike at a local park.

Hiking with my boys involved a lot of
Running.
They were in flip-flops, and I was in boots.
I have thirty years on Joe.
Did I mention the baby on my back?

But we ran and walked for an hour,
And after ate pretend Oreos,
And exclaimed over the green fields,
The glowing colors on the drive home.

After a homemade pizza dinner,
We drove back to town for a friend’s concert,
Then home for chocolate sprinkles on bread
Before we read a bit of an enticing book.

Over and over Joe said how much he liked this day,
His favorite day.
