Playground Date

Last weekend we actually managed to drag Martin away from work, chores, his phone and the computer for a few hours and drove into town. We headed to Boulevard Park and the new Woods coffee stand that has opened there. I had never been and we decided to get some drinks and treats and walk the park. Of course Grace demanded a mandatory stop at the playground. I guess it wasn't such a great idea to dress her up in the new clothes Grandma had bought for her birthday. White is not so white after about a gazillion runs down the slide. At first she was kind of hesitant about climbing up by herself, but after Martin helped her out a few times she quickly got the hang of it and did so the rest of the time all by herself. There was another little boy there and he had no qualms asking a strange man (ie: my husband) to help him too. His dad had his hands full with the little man's baby sister. After a few slides the boy apparently warmed up to us as he felt the compelling need to inform us that "Daddy had a shower this morning". Martin and I looked at each other and had the hardest time to not burst out in gut wrenching laughter. Martin did manage to keep a straight face and when the Dad in question inquired what Jr. had said replied: "Oh, just giving the hygiene report." LOL
