My Shadow

Today was a good day. Nolan slept well all night and we woke up to his usual chatter. Thank Goodness! A few story books and a bit of chit chat, then Nolan was back to sleep for the remainder of the morning right into the early afternoon. Sir Zak, Nolan and I headed down to the river valley for a nice walk in the sunshine. Zak had fun sniffing at every sign, garbage can and blade of grass. Nolan hung out in his stroller watching people as we past them.

We stopped on the grass for a few minutes, Nolan was happy to sit on his blanket and pick up and scratch at the grass. He caught a glimpse of his shadow and was mesmerized with his image. He would sway to each side watching as the image swayed, then he would sit down and watch the image shrink- stand up and watch the image grow. It was quite cute; however, he got frustrated quickly with his inability to grab at it.. that was that, back into the stroller.. then back to the car... and back to sleep.
