Natalie kindly let us pick carrots for play group one afternoon. Many of the kids were feeding bread to the ducks, but Kolton broke away exclaiming, "feed bach bach's!" He loves the chickens, though I'm noticing he is much more hesitant than he was last year which is comforting considering his general gusto for all things dangerous. He and Ellie Jane disappeared together a few times, it's what they do. The kids were eager to get in the dirt, and Kolton just dug in without washing the veggies or anything. Xiana filled an entire bag with ease (though as it turns out, it might have been a good idea to supervise a bit... we ended up with some teenie tiny carrots). Still, it was very generous, as usual. We ate carrots with every meal for weeks. Plus, the kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves, feeding the farm yard animals, playing in the dirt, and (one little boy) catching bees. Life sure is eventful when you're 2.
