We've had a great couple of days!
Laura was invited over to a school friend's house. Well, it turned out to be a huge success. The family lives in a converted dairy barn on a farmstead that board...horses! Laura and Mimi were outside pretending Little House on the Prairie and walked down to the fence to pet the horses' noses. Dude, does it get any more perfect for my daughter? A girl playmate(finally! no offense boys)? Horses? Little House on the Prairie? Pretending? Holy cow, its a match made in heaven. Oh and did I mention I really like the mom and they have chickens? I'm, excuse me I mean Laura, is so excited!
And while Laura was enjoying herself, Adam and I went sledding. There was just enough snow (though it was gone the next day) and a nice hill at Lebanon Hills. He loved the speed and was able to walk back up himself if I carried the sled. (Next year, you're carrying your own sled buster!) Then we went in to the visitors centers, ate the PB&Js that we brought, and played with the toys and games they have. So fun!
Then, today, Laura and I had pretty much the same morning that I spent with Adam, except we ice skated on the lake instead of sledded. It was the first time either of us skated on a lake and it was so much more exciting than an indoor rink! It was pretty bumpy, but in a smooth way. Lots of leaves, sticks, etc to find under the ice. And we saw a bald eagle soaring overhead. Then inside for lunch, games and play. A good morning with my girl. I will miss half day kindergarten next year!
