Spring is trying to come – we’ve had lots of rain then cold temperatures but today was in the 70’s! It was amazing! But, wouldn’t you know it, we’re back to rain and cold temperatures tomorrow. So, the kids and I stole away from a little bit of school this morning and played at the park. I still can’t get over Cami’s personality that she won’t leave my side at the park.

The other 3 played and ran and ran . . . and ran. I think they were happy to be outdoors! Although, their attention for the play equipment didn’t last long. Soon I found Caleb and Hannah skipping rocks in the little creek running through the park.

Cami quickly shifted gears and thought that was really fun too. I loved watching her excitement but also felt I had to be extra careful she didn’t get too close to fall in.

Next time I checked on the older kids (I could hear them – they were just on the other side of a footbridge) they were all 3 in the water building a dam. I’m sure everyone who passed by wondered who was in charge of these wayward children! I had to snap a picture to give myself time to act, instead of react. If only it hadn’t been at the park but in the woods – with clean water, it wouldn’t have been so bad. But, they had a good time.
