Victoria Day 2016

While Declan is sound asleep, tuckered out from a busy day I run through the days adventures once more in my head.  The weather was nice so Declan wants to be outside as much as possible. Lucky for me this means I get a little helper. We took four pails (two trips-I carried two at a time, Declan carried the shovel) over to collect some top soil from our community pile. Declan was eager to dig in, he used the little shovel and scooped in enough top soil that the pails were full. I kept telling him to get "some of the dark stuff". He was a pretty big help for a four year old. While we were collecting soil Declan noticed the park and said he wanted to go over and over. I told him that maybe he could go after his nap. I was outside pruning our tree when he woke from his nap. He came outside with me, looked me square in the eye and asked " didn't you say I could go to the park? I remember that." Then it was park time. Tomorrow I work but Daddy and Declan have a movie date. Can't wait to hear about it tomorrow.
