Children of the Corn

There is a large cornfield right across the street from the bus garage (I LOVE country life!!!).

My middle daughter, Megan, has been comming with me on my summer school routes.

She had decided that when she grows up she wants a cornfield.

Yes, a cornfield.

Actually, she wants us to buy on NOW!!

I asked her why she wants a cornfield

"We could play hid and seek and you can walk out into the middle of it and lay down and dad could get a tractor and it just sounds like so much fun!"

I kept my big mouth shut and did not talk about how expensive a corn field is to buy, how easy it is to get lost in one, how the corn plants are actually sharp and will cut you and how many bugs live in cornfields and how wet a dirty the ground is. I just wanted to let her have a bit of dream without me ruining it. I'm amazed that I became such an adult and such a fun sucker outer.

Maybe I should buy a cornfield. Or at least go find one to get lost in
