This is your second trip to the U of M landscape arboretum. I had n umbrella stroller with no protection from the sun so you had to wear a hat. You looked adorable and loved eating your mac and cheese kid meal outside in the garden. There were a lot of elderly people, all more or less admiring your style. And your made endless efforts to converse with them. After your snack we strollered around the pond and you got out of the stroller to play on the benches. I loved watching you watch things and creatures.
We saw this wonderful creature on the path as we headed down to the pond's boardwalk. It was very shy but majestic. I take this to be a very auspicious sign that we are meant for each other. Perhaps that is my imagination. And if so I will just keep imagining it for myself. Seeing you today was also wonderful. Being at the "Once upon a child" store was so sweet. I love watching you explore the toys and books. You are so easy to engage and love to try everything. No crying or whining or crabbiness. What a relief after listening to so many people who are in discomfort and trying to help them feel better. People are not good at taking care of themselves at certain times in their lives when it would be important to be gentle and nurturing. We worry about money, but don't see that we have more thean enough stuff, at least here in Minnesota to be totally satisfied, yet we want more, new and different. Look at my toe-nails for example: I had perfectly wonderful, sparkle green gel polish, but I got sick of it and had this driving desire to change to a different color, but I had a horrible time trying to make up my mind. I liked so many of the colors that I couldn't manage to pick my favorite....
