Fun Day at the Park

Lisa, Emily, Alisha, Katelin, Caleb, Graysen, and I all had a really fun time at Cleveland Park on Friday. There were a lot of great pictures from the day. Here is a description of the day in pictures. All three kids had a great time and played together really nicely. The odd thing was that Caleb was scared to death of the train. He is obsessed with trains, but this one freaked him out. He would not get on it. Emily and Lisa rode it once while Caleb stayed at the station saying, "no, no, ..." I thought that he would get on the second ride after he saw that Emily made it back safely. He still didn't want to get on, so I picked him up and put him on the train. I thought that he would be okay once it started running and he saw that it was safe. He quieted down but was scared to death. He said, "off" as soon as it came back into the station and he went back to the playground. Then, Emily became sad because she wanted to ride the train with Caleb. She did not understand why Caleb wouldn't ride it. He has been on trains just like this one before. I am not sure why he has decided that this one is danger, but I will let it be until he is ready.

Caleb didn't want to leave out Emily, so he then went and gave Emily a hug.

We ended the day by feeding ducks, geese, and fish.
