I decided to take the kids to the park to wear off a little energy and maybe start the day different. The work crew were there and just finishing up making these big big piles of leaves. I saw a couple other kids play in a pile and then my two joined. They are just too tempting and wonderful. So they played for a good half an hour in the leaves. Moving leaving, throwing leaves, jumping in leaves and covering each other up in leaves.
I was standing there with another woman when this little girl came up with her dog. They both looked like they wanted to play but the little girl told us no because we are not suppose to. Well then. It's a park. We did not mess up the piles much. And there is no rule that says we couldn't. I'm sure her parents told her no. They are much more considerate than I am. My two got this great experience of fun. And it took a little bit of energy to do all they did.
After two hours we left the park and the work crew had come back and were vacuuming up the leaves. They did their part and we did ours. There is a lot to say for play and we thank them for the pile of leaves they made just for us. ;p
