The weather has been outstanding this week so we took Andy to Golden Gardens yesterday after school. I had strawberries and chocolate, juice, nice little napkins, and a table cloth, but Andy was immediately drawn to the stream of water that every boy on the beach was attracted to -- stomping around, throwing sand and rocks into, splashing others... So we decided to cut our picnic time short and head directly home. Which is what Andy really wanted to do all along. An exceptionally well-mannered Andy played quietly inside, played big ball with grandpa and me outside, played with our neighbor's dog gently, and ate all his fish at Anthony's, before returning for those strawberries dipped in chocolate. I returned a very tired little boy to his mom and dad. I couldn't have expressed it better than Andy himself -- "It was a fun day." More beautiful weather is predicted until the end of the week. Yeah!
