Tonight after the story through the summer literacy program, the kids went for a field trip to a dairy farm. Walter loved it because he got to pet some cows and cats and got to ride in a hay wagon behind a tractor too(I posted a picture of Walter and I on the wagon along with his Auntie Emily and cousin Kirsten below). It was neat because a calf had been born only a couple of hours before we arrived and it learned how to stand-up for the first time while we where watching it. Talk about hard work being a farmer too! Nonstop from sun-up at 4:30 a.m until evening every day, I don't know how they do it! Not only did Walter learn quite a bit, but so did I. Walter couldn't wait to come home and tell Daddy that he went on his first field trip. He is getting so much more detailed in what he has to tell us now. This morning he woke-up at 5:30 a.m and called me into his bedroom to tell me in great detail all about his dream about going out to eat with Grandma. He's a story teller! Rose E's new phrase today was "give it" when Walter had something she wanted(I guess she has heard a few times me say give it back to your sister). She has also been into hauling her clothes around and she slept cuddling with a pair of shorts today, I know it sounds odd but whatever keeps her happy I guess. Anyway, she woke-up and said "see" as she showed me how she could put her arm in and out of the leg part. It's those simple things that seem to entertain the most!

Sounds like a good field trip! Perfect timing with being able to see new life at the zoo!
