A Stick or two, a tree...

Addie digs with a stick.

Then finds an even better one!

Ada attempts to scale the heights.

Addie takes her stick to the trees. Fenna and Ada are not far behind.

You sometimes express wonder at how I do what I do, but on days like this one, it could hardly be easier: Throw them outside, don't get too hung up on the "AGH! STICKS AND TODDLERS!!" paranoia, and let them go.

(Oh, and take pictures for the doting families!)
