Today was a gorgeous summer day, and on our way home from my chiropractor appointment, we stopped to get Kiernen a swim ring for the next time we go swimming (in the WATER - yeah!). We saw near the swim rings a display of those little plastic kites, and Kiernen very much wanted to get one. They were half price, so we did. and today when Daddy got home, we said, "Let's Go Fly a Kite!"
We went to an open field next to a playground we frequent, just up the street from our house. Since Kiernen has never flown a kits, he quickly got his own idea about how it all goes down (pun intended!). The way we flew the kite was one of us got it going in the air, then Kiernen would try to chase it and catch the tail as it dove toward the ground. When it would go back up in the air, Kiernen would then go to the person holding the string, take the string and pull the kite down that way. then when the kite was close enough to the ground and looked like it would fall all the way down, Kiernen would run over and catch the kite by the tail, pulling it down. We would all laugh and laugh and laugh. Repeat until he was all tired out.
