Beautiful Week

e

What a beautiful week of weather we had. The kids and I had a great time playing outside in the backyard and going to Central Park in Milford. I remember going to the park last summer and Jackson still wasn't sure about going down the big slides and Aubrin still wasn't very steady on her feet. This year it's a whole new story. They were both running around the play structure and laughing together. Aubrin found herself being very independent on the big slides and was very proud. It was an odd feeling that I was able to stand back and just watch them play and enjoy themselves.



I think I am going to be able to count on Jackson to watch out for his little sister. As the kids were waiting in line to go down the slide I heard Jackson say very politely to a little boy behind Aubrin, "Excuse me, you are getting to close to Aubrin's body. Can you please not be so close?" When Jackson started school this year, Todd and I stressed to him how important it is that he gives people space and his hands always need to be to himself. Well, it seemed he wanted to give a life lesson to the little boy at the park as well.



The weekend was a bit cooler out, but we still got outside a little.
The kids also enjoyed watching a movie together before bed on Saturday.

It's pretty fun to be able to just sit on a park bench and watch. Relax and enjoy!
