My Kite Runner

These first few pictures have no relevance to this post at all. I just keep getting comments that Sadie must be unhappy because she never smiles. I got the same responses about Elijah, they both have the same "concentrated" look on their face. Anyway, proof that she is happy (sometimes)...



Don't you just love those beavers!...

And if you have more than one child you know you can't do something with one and not the other...

Saturday we took the kids to Rosebud. We took along the kite I got Elijah for Easter. He did not want to fly the kite! We have an Elmo book he likes to read. It is about Elmo flying his kite and it takes off with him. It takes him to space and all over the earth. Well, Elijah didn't want the kite to fly away with him. It was so sad and funny all at the same time!...

We finally got him talked into it and he was having a great time...

Sadie was just watching it fly around...

Then the string snapped sending the kite far far away into a creek...

I felt so bad for him, but this face is just so precious. He is the most sensitive person I know!!...

On our way to try and retrieve the kite (which didn't happen) we were able to make the day a little better by feeding Mr Ed and Dinky here...(I don't know their real names but those are the only horse and donkey names I know).
