At the park...

Today, just like every other day, Kaitlyn and I headed out looking for some adventure. Yesterday was the Children's Museum - today was the park.

We walked to the play ground and find the best swing. I hoist her up and off she goes - giggling and smiling. UNTIL - she gets a very serious look on her face, slouches down, closes her eyes and GOES TO SLEEP! in the SWING! who is this child? This has never happened... so i wasn't quite sure if I should try to wake her, get her out, or just keep pushing the swing. No other kids were waiting so I let her swing and sleep for a bit. I wish I had my camera!

After about 5 minutes, some of the other moms were looking at me strangely (or they were admiring my subdued child) so I lift her limp little body out and let her wake up. It really was very funny to see her dangling in the swing - completely lifeless and sleeping. very odd too.

Once she was ready to play again, we ran around and picked up sticks & rocks, put our hands in the mud, looked at the bees, picked dandelions and blew kisses to the dogs walking by.

it was quite the adventure.
