NEW EXPERIENCE

Today was a beautiful spring day. We took advantage of the weather and took the 3 youngest of our children to Kinsmen Park. This was a first for Denaye and Maya.....when we arrived home back in September 2007 the weather was just turning cold and no time for parks. The girls loved the HUGE slide and Sam felt important showing them around and how to use the play equipment. Denaye had her first experience with sand......kind of sad to think she has never seen it before. She tiptoed very gently at first and then was running through it as if she had done it all her life. She told me she wanted to go to the beach and build a sandcastle....something else they have never done yet. Maya of course has seen sand in her playground at school so this was nothing special to her, but the park is huge, so she was delighted with everything. The big slide!!!!

Denaye who is usually cautious went down all by herself and giggled the whole way. Sam the ever protective big brother is always there for Denaye.

Denaye's first experience with sand.......she was cautious at first.
I love this picture....Maya is in a tube that you climb through.
Denaye always has to wear sunglasses.......she 's so funny.

    Debbie,
    You're getting me excited to bring my little girl home (perhaps in July). Knowing there are thousands of little and big "firsts" is sometimes too much to take when I think about what they experience for the very first time. Oh the joy!

    It's so exciting to see so many things that are new for the girls. Looking forward to seeing many new #1's this spring!
