A Day At The Park

Hello! And welcome to my blog! Today I took my daughter, Lilly, to the park. It was 60 outside! Crazy! She had a blast and made some new friends. I even talked to one of the moms there who had her 2 month baby with her. I asked how far apart her girls were just in curiosity. They’re about 4 years apart. My sister and I are 5 years apart so I was curious how her oldest does with the baby. When my sister was born I played little mommy sometimes. Changed her diaper, fed her. She said her oldest does the same but sometimes she does seem to get jealous and wants all the attention on her. All normal. Meanwhile, Lilly’s just playing with all the other kids that were there, having a blast. They were all running and sliding and even pretending one of the jungle gyms were a boat! I remember those days. Not a care in the world. I love watching her play whether at home or at the park with other kids. I think she enjoys the interaction with other kids as well because at home all she has is mommy and daddy. Then it was time for her friends to leave. They all said their goodbyes and Lilly wanted to keep playing. But that didn’t last too long because she missed her friends she had just made. She was ready to go. So we went home and she ended up taking a little nap. Poor girl was worn out. I love every moment with her. She is my world. Enjoy the little things. You never know when your time is up.
