In these past few weeks my children have discovered something very important.
They can still fill their days having adventures in their own backyard.
~Naming known plants...
~Planning future gardens...
~Picking strawberries...
~Washing aphids off a table, while a Knight watches on...
~Making up names for unknown plants...
~Stacking bricks, and rocks so you can knock them down...
~Feeding birds...
~Hunting and gathering dinosaurs...
~Snacking on mint...
~Running and jumping and yelling. Just because...
~Making fairy homes out of sticks...
~Having picnicss...
~Potting plants...
~Building space shuttles, race cars, bridges, rockets, anything he can think of...
~Painting, coloring, drawing...
~Picking flowers..
~Discovering snails...
~Finding out that twilight, plus daylight savings time equals staying up later...
~Playing 'one person' baseball..
~Playing 'rock baseball' in his 'pajamies'...
What will they come up with today?

A brilliant post, and a great reminder of just how little our kids really need to be happy and entertained.
I love the 'rock baseball in jammies'.
Oh Amanda, the innocence of your children leaves me speechless. Your words capture the moments just perfectly! Auntie loves all of you beauties!!!
