The Dirt Pile

I peeked out my kitchen windown yesterday afternoon and found Lemur and Monkey lounging on the dirt pile and playing in the dirt. I few minutes before this they were racing around the yard with Lemur in the umbrella stroller. Monkey was taking him for a joy ride... and Lemur was full of joy! I think it might have worn them out because they were just quietly sitting on the dirt pile - not talking, not wrestling, not doing much of anything but feeling the dirt and soaking up the sun.
Lemur repetitedly grabbed handfuls of dirt and poured it on his pants. It was a balmy 50 degrees outside and the two boys had a wonderful time playing in the good old dirt.
