Tree Hugger Preschool

Today was another good day for Sadie. She slept through the night (which she has done for about 10 days now) and it has been REALLY nice! I woke her up, she had her bottle, got dressed, got kisses from Mommy, and off to Miss Jane's daycare we went.

This afternoon when I picked her up, it was reported that she had another good day playing with her friends. She was happy and smiling when I arrived which is a great feeling! She took a bit of a catnap on our way home before our big evening out.

Amanda had a Backyard Conservation Workshop that she was helping with this afternoon at West Park in Carmel, and she was responsible for refreshments. Being as she had a bit of a hectic work schedule today, Sadie and I helped her out on this front by meeting her at the park with the food and drinks.

Before the meeting started, Sadie and I took a walk through the park / nature reserve, and we had an educational lesson on various plant and wildlife habitats. I explained to her that it is important that we take care of the many gifts that God has given us such as the plants and animals. I think that she may have dozed off during part of my lesson and I'm sure a couple of the people that we passed thought that I was nuts for talking to a sleeping baby, but oh well, it was fun anyways!

We then made it back for the presentations talking about rain gardens, wetlands, water conservation, etc. I have often joked that I am married to a tree-hugger, and so tonight was Sadie's first official 'tree-hugger' experience (a.k.a. Tree-Hugger Preschool). She was even appropriately dressed (by chance only) in a pink outfit with frogs on it -the symbol of her Mom's water conservation and water quality public education campaign.

Once we made it home, Sadie finished-up her day with a bath, a final bottle, some play/talk time, and of course, a few more kisses. She is now resting peacefully waiting for tomorrow to come.

I am thankful for the tree-huggers in my life. Good night girls!
