march

Even after moving away from Chicago nearly 10 months ago, Madden still sometimes randomly requests to move back.

He'll say things out of nowhere like, 

"Mom, we've lived in this e-partment for a really really long time, so can we go back to our Chicago e-partment now?"

Or when the nearby Morrison Ranch is stinky (like cow poop stinky) and it blows over our direction and into our neighborhood, he'll walk outside and say, 

"Ewwww!  It stinks here!  It never stunk in Chicago!  So can we go back to Chicago?"

A few days ago, on a beautiful March day in the 70's he said, 

"Can we go back to Chicago now??  Cuz I'm too hot here."

This was the current weather forecast at that moment, Arizona vs. Chicago:

Pretty sure if we had been in Chicago that day (which by the way had a wind chill that brought the temps down to -4!) he would have requested to be back in Arizona!

Cuz in March in Chicago, our friends our still getting dumped on by snow...

But here in AZ in March, we are lounging by the pool and getting a tan!
