The arrival of warm weather means many things, but one of the most important around here is that it brings the opportunity to spend as much free time as possible outdoors.
Thankfully the Easter bunny left new butterfly nets this year, however it's a bit early for butterflies. Rather than have them collect dust while we wait for their arrival, it only seemed natural for the boys to tote them down to the pond.
I know it felt great to be back in the sunshine and mud, knee-deep in water, hunting for minnows.
Not much else brings me greater peace than to see my guys in this element, lost in their quest for nature. As my mother-in-law pointed out, I think I was always meant to be the mother of boys. I don't even know what we would do with a girl.
Well, maybe sew some yummy dresses!
