We went over to a local park that has a "living history farm" on its grounds. Today they did some sheep shearing and sheep dogs did sheep herding. My son (5) has a favorite animal and it is SHEEP. He loves sheep and always has...since he was a little guy. So, we saw the sheep get a haircut and watched the sheep dogs do their job. My baby clearly had her guardian angel on duty today. I was holding her and all of a sudden a rock grazed the side of her head. Some little boy decided to throw a rock; his mother was very apologetic and concerned. It was a little boy and every child has done something crazy like that...I'm just so grateful it didn't hit her in the head hard or in her eye. Thank You God.
We then took a long walk around a huge pond. The boys were in their glory running around and discovering things. They think they found a beaver dam. I have no idea because I don't know anything about beavers but if they are happy with their discovery-let them have their fun. It is so true about boys-they need motion and they love to explore. My daughter (3) was having fun but not as much as the boys. A few times I thought son (5) was going to fall into the pond but he managed to stay on dry land. He did take a couple of bad falls on the gravel but that didn't slow him down.
We are working on making a nice garden on the side of the patio but can't fit all the plants we need into the Subruban in one trip. So, my husband will be stopped for a few more platns on his way home from work today. We are planting Welgia, which is supposed to be a good screen-privacy type of plant. I have no idea but nothing ventured-nothing gained. |
I'd like to grow some herbs but I'm afraid of the deer getting the nibbles and eating my plants. Maybe I can grow them inside? Ok, time to end this not ebecause the baby needs some attention from her mommy.
