Tuesday with Ryder

Today was a special day of baby sitting for the great-grandson Ryder. He is such a cutie and so active ...his daddy dropped him off around seven  .  As soon as the sun came out enough to dry off the grass we were outside.     Ryder has discover my old water fall and he couldn't resist exploring it. That look on his face says "Please Grandma"




                               Here he scoping it out to see where the water comes from and he's thinking
                  about his next move and  I'm hoping he stays dry.


                                              
                                                  Below he has decided to get right down and get involved by moving the stones and getting his hands wet.



                                      Next he discovered the giant mushroom in an old flower bed. He is curious about this and he stomped on all the smaller ones he found.


                             Next he wandered toward my small area where I feed the birds and have a few plants sitting as it is shaded...  Where are the birds he said..the container is empty...probably a squirrel  or a small two legged one.  The big stones in the area my late husband brought back from North Carolina when we visited my sister.



                             The afternoon is not over until he makes friends with my outside cat. We had an ice cream cone and Ryder shared that with the cat but I didn't get a picture.


                                               After all this we are both ready for a nap.


 Fun day...Hope yours was full of sunshine and smiles too.

  3. The innocence and curiosity of a child. They are able to see the wonder and beauty in everything around them. We could all learn from them. Looks like you had a wonderful day. Love ya, T
