they get to go to the farmer's market every saturday with their dad.

not all of them every saturday, but most.

i am usually the one who stays behind with soccer, baseball, OM, or other random obligation.

they always get breakfast, flowers for mom, & these...

homemade popsicles.

they start talking about them excitedly on the way up the street.

they pass by knowing they will get them on the way back to the car.

they stop to pet the random dog or two.

say hello to the occasional friend or teacher (hi mrs. campbell!)

but they can't wait to turn around & head back.

the man knows them & has their pops ready.

this crew's favorites...

tangerine dream & coconut cream.

i got in a lick or two myself today...

by himself.

didn't want him to get sick or anything.
