Carrying a Pine Tree


Ember and I walked a long while on the Cannon Valley Trail this morning. One thing about Ember is that she can walk a long way without complaining, and I appreciate that. She likes to collect things along the way and wanted to bring home some sticks. When she found one that was at least 6 feet long I told her she already had enough sticks. She quickly said, "Auntie, this is NOT a stick. It is a pine tree." She carried it straight and tall for awhile to convince me. We saw a few turtles in the swamp but not as many as we'd hoped. I guess one warm day isn't enough to get them to come out and sun themselves on the logs.
