Early summer








Today, Tessa's preschool class went to see "Busytown" at the Seattle Children's Theatre. Katie drove (thanks, Katie!) so that the four of us (two girls, two moms) could carpool, and the girls really enjoyed the performance.



For me, the best part came after the performance. We'd packed picnic lunches, and we sat on a blanket and just soaked up the sun and the fun atmosphere. It's the Children's Festival at the Seattle Center, and they had a hula-hoop demonstration going on, and also dozens of hula-hoops for kids to try, complete with lessons. Tessa and Jessie both started to get the hang of it, and as we sat in the sunshine, there wasn't anything better.




Katie had suggested that we bring swimsuits for the girls, and it was a fabulous idea. We let them run in and out of the fountain for a couple of hours, and I think that they had an amazing time. I know that it was just what I want for Tessa: a simple pleasure, a lazy afternoon. Time with good friends. Sunshine, laughter. Heaven!



Here are some pics of our day together.
