Mother's Day

I had the most fantastic Mother's Day!! We went for a "hike" in the morning, using the term very loosely. Bea wasn't very cooperative about riding in the backpack for longer than 10 minute spurts, so our hiked turned into an amble, stopping every 20 yards to look at dirt/rocks/bugs. As she does, Bea serenaded us throughout the "hike" with renditions of "ABCs," "Twinkle twinkle," "Old MacDonald," "The Wheels on the Bus," and "Won't my Mommy be so proud of me." For those of you who watch Glee, Bea is an expert at mash-ups.
In the afternoon, we took a picnic out to Seward Park and had a glorious time. It's a perfect spot for wee ones to run free! I have nightmares about Bea plummeting off a cliff and spend a lot of time cringing when she gets too close to the edge of anything minutely dangerous. The beach at the point of Seward Park is a good worry-free zone for crazies like me.
