sticks and dirt

Three year old boys are funny, and if you get the opportunity to hang out with one, you should. (not to say 3 year old girls aren't fun..........I am just writing this from experience)!
Olivier is having just a blast exploring the outside world. We have a backyard here, and he would gladly spend hours picking up and rearranging rocks and twigs . He likes to pour water on just about anything that is standing still, and he can't believe what a great invention the hose is..... to think water can come out non stop is incredible!! I let him have some "jobs" to do outside, to have him learn to help me and also to feel like he is important for doing these jobs.. He planted all of my pots with flowers, and it's his job to water them.........I think he also waters the lawn chairs, the table, the bbq, etc. All in a days work though, right?

Cute! I remember Griffin doing the same thing at that age - loved watering things, didn't matter what they were!
