Hello From The Outside

I went outside yesterday. Twice.

Once was to the mailbox with Topher and the girls to send out some postcards Phoebe had written to her classmates as part of an organized pen pal project. It was a short walk, but appreciated by all. Topher asked to wear shoes and announced, "I walk self." I held his hand while he walked. He didn't want to come back inside and tried to put on shoes again later in the day as he headed for the front door.

The second jaunt outside was during Topher's nap to help Sophie complete her Earth Day scavenger hunt for social studies and practice throwing a ball overhand for gym. Cooper came with us that time and ran after the ball each time it went rolling down the hill toward the street.

Outside is nice, maybe I'll go there again someday.
