while i was away i got a phone call from matt telling me that both kids had flown our kite. something they had never done before. i was horrified that there were no pictures, so today i was sure to rectify that situation!
after isaiah's soccer game today we decide to give it a try since the wind was unusually strong. we went to an undeveloped lot to see what 'big lizard' could do.
alaythia went first. she knew just how to hold the handle, while matt held the kite. he would count and she new to start running. he let it go, and wa-la, alaythia was flying a kite. as she ran, and even stopped to watch it fly, she was singing the song.
isaiah was next, on his mark, ready to start running when daddy said the word.
he actually got it up pretty high.
i figured i should give it a shot since both the kids did it so effortlessly. i must admit that flying a kite is really, really...peaceful and enjoyable. very fun. i loved flying a kite today and plan to do it more often. mary poppins was on to something!
p.s. if you want to see larger pictures just click on them, and they should go to full screen.

Those pictures show such happy kids! What great relaxing fun. Continue sharing the pictures. Thanks for the clue about clicking to make them bigger.
