Life

Today we walked to the park by our house. The weather was perfect and no one was there so it felt like an extension of our backyard. We had a great time and played for an hour, but when I put the boys in the wagon to go home, Max was really crabby. After five minutes, I asked him what was wrong. He said, "Mommy, just let me play!!" I let him out, curious as to what he would do. He sat in the bushes and played for 15 minutes by himself, happy as a clam. Eli and I talked and looked at the white flowering trees we were sitting under. Finally, Eli said, "Max, you've played enough. Let's go home."
