Take Time to Stop and Feed the Ducks

I love May! It has always been my favorite month-the weather is finally shaping up, there are fun activities on the calendar, the school year is ending and there is the anticipation of summer right around the corner, before any of it has been wasted or the heat has gotten the best of me. Today we decided to take full advantage of it being May and go to feed the ducks at Salem Pond-something I can remember always doing growing up. We saw a guy catch a HUGE fish, seriously almost as long as my arm, and Dax immediately wanted to know WHY I hadn't brought his pole, obviously not remembering he was terrified and screamed like a girl last time he actually caught a fish. Hayes really wanted to catch a duck and put it on his wall. Asher found a few waddling across the grass and followed them to the water just like he was another baby duck, except he growled and yelled his own version of "duck!" at them until they calmly swam away. Plus its always exciting to walk over the bridge and worry that one of the boys (the littlest in particular) will try to jump off and give me a heart attack:) Its a pretty good way to spend an afternoon:)
