Outdoorsy lil girl

Now that the weather is finally nice and there is more daylight, Allison hates to be inside. In fact, whenever the dogs go out, she huffs and wails her arms up in the air and insists she go out there with them.

We play by our tree and draw with crayons as well as pick up leaves and brush them on the trunk's surface. Every now and again she'll stand up to hug her tree. She is one with nature and loves everything pertaining to the outside world. She points and talks to the squirrels while she watches them eat their nuts on the tall ash tree.

These are the moments I relish. You see everything for the first time again through the eyes of your child...
