What we take for granted as every day menial jobs, kids always find such fascination with. We had 4 trees removed from our yard as well as some other trimming done. Needless to say, the boys thought it was the coolest thing. They would run from window to window saying, "look!" and "Mommy, what are they doing now?" Looking back, I feel bad that I didn't take the time to stop and enjoy the site with them as I was in such a hurry to get them ready and out the door for the day. I guess lesson learned. Stop and smell the roses or in this case the wood chips.

I understand. I'm always saying that same thing..should have slowed down and watch the garbage truck dump the trash with him or whatever the "ordinary" activity was that is oh so extraordinary to them. We do our best though!
The bean sure loves those little things too. Nothing beats trash day!
