The man

We’re about six weeks into our house renovation project, and the girls have adjusted well to the noise, our inability to use the garage, and the comings-and-goings of many workers. Zoe got really excited when she watched the concrete truck do its thing (twice), and she’s also strangely interested in the truck that comes to clean the port-o-potty parked on our sidewalk for the workers. (For whatever reason, Zoe always seems to be at the window during its weekly stop.) As for Avery, she’s most interested in “the man.” “Is the man coming today?” she asks almost daily, and when she hears the garage door go up she’ll nod knowingly and say, “The man’s here.”
