Walk 2: In which the ponds saves Mama's sanity for now..

Time: 11:30am
Weather: Sunny and a bit hot
Moods: Grumpy all around! Though this did improve once the pond was sighted.

We've had a hectic couple of days and this morning included a screaming-by-both-boys-tired-mom grocery shopping trip which led to only more screaming by the time we got home. Hmmm- time to head outside. Ahhh, yes we needed the pond today. Leland fell asleep in his pack pack, and James was excited to throw rocks into the water. I was excited to hear something besides whining and crying!
Sometimes I get too caught up in trying to take a picture or just being a grown up.James reminds me that really going to the pond can just be about, "1-2-3-GO!!!" Throwing rocks with Mama.

And watching this duck. "His feets are in the water!! He's fwimmming!!! He gets out of the water Mama!!!!!" Then hiding by my leg, a bit worried, "He wants to get in the water. He will go back in the water."
