Labor Day Weekend - at the Park

This morning I took the kids to the Park to walk around, feed the ducks, check out what's new. It was great. First stop was the duck pond. Addie spotted this unusually colored duck (well, for our pond it was new) - sorry, pic was taken with my Blackberry.



Afterwards, we walked to the playground. Of course Addie sped ahead, always needing to be the leader. After a while, I just let her go ahead, it was obvious she didn't want to hang with her mom too much today. When we were walking home, Miles was yelling for Addie to come back. She was clear across the soccer field. He thought she would get lost. I told him, "Don't worry. She won't get lost. And if she does, you can have her room." Miles' face relaxed and he said, "Okay." Then, "Do you like her?" Oops, guess he doesn't get my humor...

So then we were almost home, and we passed my neighbor. She had her back to the street and was busy painting her door. I decided we wouldn't say hello, since 1.) she looked very into her work and 2.) I am pretty sure she hates us. So then just as we were right in front of her house, Miles lets out a huge fart. I mean LOUD. He immediately said, "That wasn't me. That is a skunk. My farts don't smell that bad." Thanks, buddy. Couldn't help but giggle at that one!
