Sunny Sunday

04.18.2010

Do you ever have those days you wish you could bottle up and remember forever? I had one of those with my kids today. The only thing missing was Daddy who, of course, was at work.

After church, we grabbed a sandwich and headed to the park with Papaw and Neena. Andrew always has a great time at the park. He hated the sand in his sandals, but after a quick switch to his tennis shoes he was good to go. And Megan had her first experience with the swings at the park. She was hard to get a good picture of because she was looking all around, but she seemed to enjoy the ride. It was a beautiful, sunny day and the perfect kind of day to be outside. After the park we went to get ice cream. For Andrew, this made it the best day EVER. Then we went back to Papaw and Neena's for some more fun outside. Andrew held his first caterpillar, rode in his wagon with Megan (and no, there's not picture of that - bad Mommy!) and had his Papaw roll him around as he stood on a hand truck. I've said it a million times, but Andrew is all boy!

Being at the park, though a very happy time and place to be, made me a little sad too. We were at the park where we celebrated Andrew's first birthday. Next month, we'll be celebrating his fourth. Where did all that time go?
