park kids
We played with the kids at home for a while. E got out some of his treasured childhood tools - little animal guys. Leonard had the best time putting them BACK in the bag, and Leah tried to keep hers close so Leonard didn't grab 'em.
Then we walked down to the park. Leah and E ran around and Leonard and me climbed and swang. I accidentally got a picture of Leonard's shadow while swinging and it actually was a fun picture for having my camera backwards!
When we came back from the park, the kids helped E sweep the back porch (it's just a teeny cement slab with our swing on it). They were happy to be helpers while I cooked in the kitchen. Periodically, they'd sit on the porch swing and they could see me when they got to a certain place in their swing and would yell "hi"!
Leonard said something that sounded like our names for the first time, which is def a milestone!
It was a fun morning, and we shared lunch with them and their dad afterwards.
