And what is my most "Magical Ordinary Thing" you ask...
A Screen Door. I finally have a Screen Door - thanks to my Wonderful Husband!!
I have many a fond memory of the screen door we had in my childhood home. It was white and was located on the door that came in from the garage into the kitchen.
One of the most magical things about a Screen Door, is the Hook & Eye closure. Don't ask why, it just is... well to me anyway.
Marc was smart, and got a door that has a wire mesh grate at the bottom so the boys can't push through it.
Finally, I can open my front door and let in the cool spring, summer and autumn breezes without filling the house with flys, bees, and bugs.
The other "Magical" thing about a Screen Door, is the sound of it "Slamming". Unfortunately, my Screen Door does not posess that particular "Magical" quality, but I can imagine the sound just the same.
Notice the boys striated artwork to the left of the door? The Easter Bunny was kind enough to bring the boys Sidewalk Chalk last weekend. Well, since we don't have a sidewalk, a paved driveway, or a concrete patio, they had to work with what they had for their canvas.
