spring days

 

spring, finally.  we see dandelions everywhere. so yellow. gorgeous.
[as long as it's not growing in our yard, according to the mister]

 

i have received so many boy-handled gifts this past week.  we have a little collection basket by the front door for all these sorts of precious bounty.

 

even the youngest has contributed.

  

we've had many walks.

 

we've enjoyed the neighborhood park.

 

we've snuck in some learning outside school.  he's making mommy's grocery list which ended up being mostly pictoral.

 



his little brother snatched up the paper to try it himself.

 

we've reacquainted ourselves with all the fun, mostly-thrifted outdoor toys and shared them with our neighbors.



we've enjoyed dinner al fresco as much as we can.  the boys enjoy it so much and it makes clean up so much easier for mama.
