DISCOVERING

The weather has really started to get nice the past couple of weeks, and getting outside is almost daily for us. The other day Macie wanted to go outside in the backyard and play, but Wade was not napping and has had a nasty cold the past week, so I wasn't going to be able to go outside. I put aside my worried mom wows and got her all bundled up and let her play outside all by herself. It was scary for me and I can't lie I watched her like a hawk but she was fine the whole time, she played with the puppies, picked at leaves, climbed her playhouse, looked at and admired the puppies poop, and brought all the balls onto the deck. She loved it and I loved that I got over my fears and trusted Macie to play outside and be safe. Today was especially gorgeous and although Wade was napping I had some things to do when Macie came and asked me to play outside, so again putting aside my fears, I bundled her up and she played and discovered for over an hour.

I am so in love with this pic and wish I knew what she was finding
