Riverwalk

We went to Naperville's Riverwalk for a picnic and to walk along the river. The water was really low, allowing the kids to walk to this island that is usually inaccessible.
Jake threw rocks into the river to his heart's content and then ran around on the bridges while the other kids waded in the water to their heart's content.
We had our picnic under this tree. At one point Jake laid down and said, "Beautiful!" He often notices the beauty of things around us, both natural and man made, and I love that he helps me to take notice with his exclamations of awe.

Our Kids often show us what we are too occupied to notice!
