"I see a moon!
Where?
Behind you."
-James
I believe this marks the first quote at the top of the blog from our little James, but I could be mistaken. At any rate, I felt it was appropriate to quote James as his talking has turned from a scattering of words to something resembling actual conversation, albeit not an intellectually challenging one.
In non-verbal news, it can be dangerous to let two children go play outside without supervision. It’s not that they do anything dangerous, but sometimes you’ll let them outside thinking they are playing in the sandbox only see this when you look out the back door window:
Luckily Mom is a treasure trove of children’s activities, most of which do not involve piles of mud, and so the next day when the kids were outside (with a cleaned dress for Ashlyn) they were able to play without requiring a bath right after.
And sometimes you just don’t want to play, you just want to chill out with Mom.
The Spring yard work has begun, and as always the kids were out with their version of “help”. This involved one handful of grass being put in the wheelbarrow, and five handfuls of grass coming back out.
Sunday brought a visit to Nina and Papa’s and some play time with Cousin Ben. I love the top right picture of Ashlyn, I have never seen a girl with a cookie looked so determined.
