A Lovely Afternoon

It was about 85 degrees, and we spent a good deal of time at the park, sitting on a blanket in the shade. We ate arroz de leche popsicles, which is essentially rice pudding on a stick. Delicious. Hazel chased the crows. Violet slept through it all in the camoflauge sling, like her big sister before her used to do. Today the big sister was looking every inch the almost-3-year-old that she is, in her cute pink dress with one pink knee sock, pulled all the way up and one short, flowery ankle sock. And sandals. Gotta love 'er.
