Front Yard

My kids have always liked playing in the front yard rather than the back. I don't know what it is. That's why I really liked our new house's frontyard when we were looking at it. The driveway is long and there is lots of room to play because I knew how much we love to be in the front yard. I still have a little front porch that I can sit on and read while the girls play around. Lately it has been this game. They dig up all of the moss and weeds and mud and make cakes and all sorts of other yummy messes. Last night we were reading Little house in the Big Woods and Mary and Laura were playing practically the same game with tree stumps, sticks, dirt, and leaves. I love it when life is simple.
