Today was a half day, which means we had a lot of possibilities since all the kids would be home at noon. We took advantage by going to the park. Bruce and Calla played for a good half hour. Bruce isn't quite as taken as he used to be with the swings. Six months ago he would have thrown a fit when you tried to take him out. And that was after 15 minutes or more of swinging! Now he's perfectly content to swing three or four minutes and move on to whatever is next. But for those three-four minutes, he loves the swing.
After that we went to the ducks. I had popcorn from a church activity last week. It was a huge bag full, and we had eaten as much as we were going to eat (except perhaps Calla who asked while feeding the ducks if she could have some) so I thought we'd have a go at feeding the ducks the popcorn. I figured they'd like it. Turns out they do. And it was easier for Bruce than bread is because he doesn't have to tear it to make small pieces.
Overall it was a good day at the park.
And it was a good day at karate. Calla has been taking with me for three weeks now. Her brand new black gi came in today, and everyone was very, very excited. And well they should be. It turns out that we wont be going to the tournament this weekend like I thought we might. We're shooting for one November 10th, so look forward to that. Here is Calla with another boy in all their new gi splendor.
