The ultimate nature walk

It's spring break. Thank goodness...preschool can be grueling...And so our weekly get together was like it used to be...no place to go, nothing to do, no one else to chat with. And I loved it! I like picking him up at school and seeing him interact in the world but I miss getting to just be with him and pick up on his little things in a quiet and relaxed way.

He's really into nature. I'd say right now but it's been a recurring theme. We brought a baggie so we could collect things for his nature table. We hit the mother load. Snail shells. Two giant ones. Empty. And a whole walnut. Do you know how hard it is to find a whole walnut shell? I do. His parents do.

On the way out the door I saw the cape his teacher made him for his birthday. I tucked it in just in case. Warning...he looks exceptionally pretty in this get-up...these photos aren't for those with a strict sense of boys only fashion...
