While wind has had some disastrous circumstances elsewhere in the world this week, we were able to reap some benefits from the breeziness. The girls wanted to get the kite out the other day so we went into the powerline-less field and sent it up. I couldn't get over the expressions of absolute joy on their faces as they held that string. They ran all over to keep the kite going and did really well hanging on to it. I was sure we'd be saying goodbye to Pooh & Tigger as the wind was quite strong and could have easily carried it away if they had dropped the handle. It only slipped once and the kite happened to be in mid crash anyway so it didn't get far. Once they had three crashes it was the next girl's turn so they were very motivated to keep it in the air! I'll have to remember to get this out on the next windy day because they just loved it sooooooo much!
