Today we decided to take a little walk to one of our favorite spots along the near-by creek. The air has a bit of chill to it and it makes me remember that our opportunities for nice afternoon outings are limited.
Freeland immediately began looking for worms. He found quite a few and shared one of the smaller ones with Eliana who dearly loved her "cutie pie pet worm" whom she affectionately named "Hannah" after her beloved aunt. Imagine her horror when she accidentally pulled said worm in half.
So Freeland kindly offered to share some of his big worms...
And got this reaction...
We later found her another "cutie pie" worm and she carried it around the rest of the time we were there. She planned to bring it home and bathe it with nice smelling soap and let it sleep in her bed, but we convinced her that it would be happier in the nice, soft dirt where it was found.
Annika still has a bit of a cold, so she walked a little more slowly than the rest and kept me company. I treasure these moments with her. She is growing up so fast. We spoke of changing seasons and saw some fish "that look just like a fish family" swimming in the creek.
These are days to treasure for sure!
