At the Park on a hot summer day....

Just got home from a park adventure on a seriously hot summer day. Boys are asleep in their bed and this mommy has some time to reflect :)

It is so amazing to me how some of the fun things that I would do just to be creative stuck in Parker's mind. He remembers how when we find a really cool stick, we go to a certain spot and sit down and draw in the dirt with them. He remembers how when he goes in the tunnel I am supposed to try and grab him through the holes on the outside, he remembers how when I stick him in the swing he wants to go "HIGH", he remembers the spot that we would always run through the leaves, he remembers how when we go sit in the little play house we act like he is fixing dinner and he puts sticks and leaves on the table for me to eat...but not so fast...he will wipe the table clean before mommy can eat and he thinks it's SOOOO FUNNY. And he remembers how when we are done playing at the park, we like to go over to the fountain that's a good walk away and throw rocks in the fountain. We have a little park routine and it is so amazing to me how at not even 2 1/2 he knows what we do. It fills me up when I see him so much enjoy little "tricks" for fun that I do and adopt them as his own. Wow...what a treasure to see my traits become his. I love it!
