Springtime fun





Yesterday was one of the first truly beautiful days that we have so far this spring.  The weather was warm, the sun was out.  Truly a "God's in His heaven alls right with the world" sort of day.  Spring has returned.  The Earth is like a child that knows poems. 
- Rainer Maria Rilke. 
So the kids and I spent some time outside.  Spring is always a wonderful time of year but there is something about sharing it with a child that really adds a new perspective.  For a three year old every ant is cause for an exuberant outcry and of course endless observation.  For a one year old there are few things more exciting than getting  your socks dirty...NOT to mention being able to share daddy's iced coffee.
