Enjoying The Leaves

Today we spent over an hour outside playing in the leaves.  And all of this was lead by A.  I love watching and participating in all of her stories and adventures. 

At one point we were all sitting on the ground and we were pretending to roast marshmallows for the birds. It does not matter if I understand all of the thoughts & stories in her head.  It does matter that I encourage and play with her! 

We also spent time raking, scooping, pouring, throwing leaves in the air,  making music, & talking about the different seasons/ weather.  What a great day!

Cardboard Flute
