Let's Go Fly a Kite...*Mary Poppins*

I took the Boy and J kite flying for the first time last night! The Boy had obviously never done it before but I was shocked to find out that J had never flown one before either. I don’t know about you but to me that is wild. Kites were a big part of my childhood. My brother and I grew up next to a school yard so we were there constantly with different models over the years. Then again, he did grow up in Fredericton, maybe kites weren’t huge out there….Anyway, The Boy had fun with it until about mid way through. Then he told me that it was, “No fun, it go up, it fall down, it go up, it fall down. No fun.”

Try explaining to a toddler about the challenge of keeping it in the air.

Anyway, am going to be off for the weekend to Cobourg to help my girlfriend move into her first house. CAN’T WAIT!!! She has told me I will be lawn and garden girl! Am going to be weeding, cutting the lawn, whipper-snippering, etc. J and the boy will be staying home. J’s mom and aunt are coming into town for the Canada Day weekend, and J’s mom is staying for the week after. I’ll see them when I get home Sunday afternoon.

No vacation booked for the summer really. The Boy’s beginner school class took the one for August out. Oh well, I’ll take a day at a time when I need it and then take a week or two in the fall or winter.

Blog ya later.
