Our time at the park is slowly winding down. It gets dark too early now to spend much time there later in the day. That’s probably why the time change is hard for me because as nice as it may be in the morning to not have it look like 3 am, I tend to do things with both girls more in the afternoon. By the time Hayley got home from school, had a quick snack, changed out of her uniform, and was ready to go it was already 3 pm. We managed an hour but by 4 it was getting dark enough that I was ready to leave and it was also getting much colder than it had been earlier in the day.

Still, we had fun. They went on the swings, played on the slides, ran on the grass, and dug a huge hole for the sole purpose of getting to the slightly damper sand to make “pies” together. They even ooh-ed and ahh-ed over a caterpillar that Hayley found on a rock. Breanna kept screaming with joy over it.

I’ve gone to the park in the Winter on occasion, but I definitely prefer the snow-free park. I’ll be missing it when it’s too cold and dark to go at all.
