A day at the park

We went to Brookfield Park today with M. from church. Our first stop was her house. The girls had asked in the car if we were going to get to go into her house. I had told them no that we were just going to meet her there and then she was going to follow us to the park. Well, M. immediately asked them if they wanted to come in and see her 'nest' The didn't know what that meant, but they were very happy to go in her house. M. gave us the grand tour and then the girls were satisfied and ready to go to the park after convincing Mrs. M. that she needed to change from her tennis shoes into flip flops. We arrived at the park and I was very happy to see that the water fountain was working since the last time we went it was broken. The girls said that water was cold, but that didn't stop them. They ran around and had a ball and then Katie had to have her usual fall. She fell right on the concrete and scraped up her cheek. She cried briefly and then was fine. We went to the swing and the girls were happy to be able to swing. Steffie can now swing completely by herself and Katie was happy to have M. push her. We ended our day at the park with picnic lunch and then said goodbye to Mrs. M.
