The New Addition

I had asked Audrey a few months ago if she would like a swing set in her own backyard. Her response?

"I think Audrey should have a swing set in her yard!"

Such a silly question.

As we had other things going on, it took awhile to choose the right swing set. Audrey would mention almost daily that we needed to pick out her swing set. The timing of its arrival, right around Ian's arrival, had me concerned as to whether it would get assembled any time soon. But, Eric and Grandpa P worked very hard to assemble it. Thankfully the two injuries which were sustained did not require hospitalization!

It wasn't quite assembled when Audrey arrived home from school, but it was recognizable as a swing set. However, the swings and slide were not yet attached. Which had Audrey a little confused and quite concerned. She agreed to sit down in the kitchen to have a snack after she arrived home, but she positioned herself so she could still keep an eye on Eric and grandpa:

"Does the swing set have a ladder?"

"Does the swing set have a swing?"

"And does it have a slide?"

And after I answered yes to each of these questions, I saw her relax and get really excited about the new addition to the backyard.

She so loves her new swing set. Thanks daddy and grandpa and grandma P!
