Zoe's First Grass

Spring has been here for some time, and it has been gorgeous so far, but I only this weekend finally got around to getting Zoe near the grass. (First I had to mow it!) She loved it. It was a beautiful Sunday morning, and we got out nice and early while the front yard was in lots of shade and the weather was refreshing cool. Zoe spent the time tearing up bits of grass (she managed to eat a small part of a very thin blade) and playing with sticks. The ground was still a bit wet from the morning dew, which is why she's on a towel. The light down here is especially nice: it's soft and cozy, giving things a pleasant glow. We turned in grades this past Friday, so now we can more fully sit back and enjoy it all.

It's great how babies are fascinated with things we take for granted. Zoe looks like she thinks grass is the best invention yet!
