Autumn or Spring?

Yesterday and today were gorgeous days! They were so warm it felt like spring. Yesterday I packed up a picnic lunch for the Little Love and I and we visited a small zoo. We had such a nice time together the two of us looking at animals, playing on the playground there, and having our picnic lunch outside together. And it's November too! Today after her art class, we simply went to the playground that has the very tall slide by the river that Andrina loves. She made me go up with her about a dozen times and we slid down together and we also took a walk by the river so she could see the ducks. Both days were so nice. Nice weather, nice activites, and most importantly, Andrina and I being able to enjoy being able to be together. These activites are so important to me. I have a deep need to not only really be with my child but to make sure that she knows, she feels, how much I enjoy being with her and taking her places. I want her earliest memories to be filled with knowing how much she is loved and wanted. Yesterday and today were two more great days filled with that possibility.
