Simple Pleasures
Last night we had a neighborhood block party. When I drove by on my way to take Emma and Anne Michal to soccer practice I saw that they had a little train that was being driven around the playground. I knew I had to take Creed when I got back home. He was so excited. We stood in line for his turn and he looks at me with his eyes just glowing and said, "I am going to call him Thomas!" I was rather relieved that he didn't question where the track was!
They also had a pony, but there was no way he was riding a pony. He kept shaking his head vehemently when asked if he wanted to ride; yet, he wasn't afraid to slide down the giant blow up slide. He climbed up and slid down over and over again. The look of glee on his face as he flew down with his shock of blonde hair blowing up behind him was priceless. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of that, but I did get this. Snowcones!
P.S. 12 year old girls that are thrilled to carry their baby sister in an ergo are priceless!!
