Shadow tag

This morning I noticed that Austin was more quiet than usual. He was standing at the basement stair door where bright sun was shining from the outside door just behind it. I discovered that he was seeing the shadow of his curly hair, but when he would try to touch it, his head would move just enough to make the curly shadow disappear!

This was an incredibly beautiful day, reaching into the mid sixties. This afternoon I was cutting fruit for salad at the kitchen table. The sliding glass door was open, the birds were singing their hearts out, and I felt like I would just burst! Isn't warm Spring weather the most wonderful thing?

it is so cool to these little ones learn new things. I will be seeing my grandson again tomorrow.
