Are my kids still over there?

I hear this question often from Paige and Orion's dad.  These four are pretty fun to have around this summer.  They can spend hours doing apparently (to me) nothing, and they are in that Summer groove where you play outside all day, no matter the weather.  They cheer when I bring out lunch or snacks, and devour foods ravenously.  They make their own fun.  I overheard Molly telling Roland "Yeah, Paige kidnapped me and turned me evil, so I chased Orion to kidnap him".

We are starting to have the kind of summer I'd really hoped for.
