The Clark Wild Bunch + Jay

The Clark wild ones came today.  What a joy it was.  And, they brought Jay, Caroline's little friend with them.  They came in like a dust devil rushing across a dry field.  Couldn't get everything done fast enough.

Leslie said, when they got ready to leave, Caroline was telling her friend, Jay, about coming to the farm to see the horses, chickens, cows, and the jungle.  Actually, it is the forest, but it was a jungle when she told Jay.  Leslie said his little face wrinkled up and he said, "I would like to go to the farm too."  Leslie told him to jump in, more fun to share.  So he did.

Sarah Ruth, the baby, was asleep, and maybe that was a good thing, Jay and Caroline were in full tilt.  Run to see the horses, run to see the chickens, run to see the pond....just run and run.

I had just returned from retrieving Lauren from the airport.  She barely had her bags dropped when the little gang got here.  Wow, forgot how exciting life can be when you are 4 years old and everything is filled with adventure.





Not to worry, adults were close by just in case.



We fed the fish and Caroline and Jay had a contest to see who could count the most fish.



Time to come in.  The fish need to go to sleep.



Could life be any better for these two?



Caroline was concentrating hard to make sure her little gingerbread man was perfect.







Pretty good for 4 year old kids!  These gingerbread men are wonderful, some happy and some sad.

What a fine visit.  Thanks Leslie for sharing all the little ones with us today.
