We often get Krassi out into the yard to play. I don't so often get him out of the yard with us! But Monday was a beautiful day, Mira was at an appointment with Dad, and Bobbi at a therapy session with Rose, so the rest of us [well, the rest of us minus Owen and Leah] decided to go pick some of the cattails that grow in the retention pond at the high school next to our house, at Evania's prompting after seeing them on the way home from church the day before.
I'm reminded again how hard it is to get a good picture of everyone when you have more than two or three children!!
Not bad, but Reuben's not looking. Or Krassi. Or Eben. Or Gloria, really. So we try again:
Well, kind of better. Maybe. Oh well. You can see all six of them, and that counts for something!
I'm never sure what Krassimir will think of some of these outings, so I enjoyed seeing that he kept a firm grip on his cattail all the way home! And that with his left (non-dominant) hand, nonetheless!!
Cattails are some of the most wonderfully tactile things out there! Given how much Krassi likes holding on to things, I'm not surprised he liked these. It's hard to tell from the pictures -- have they started fluffing yet? I bet Mira would like the softness of them against her skin when they do. (You might have to make another trip back...)
