The neighborhood I live in is basically a square mile of houses.
We can walk for two miles and stay on different roads the whole time!
One of the areas of our neighborhood has a cute little duck pond and walking trail around it. Aiden loves for us to take him to go see the ducks. It is always really cute to see the little families at the pond fishing or walking their dogs, and since Aiden has a new spider man fishing pole, we thought we would take it with us. (minus any bait or lures or hooks)
Aiden is "fishing".
He trotted all the way around the duck pond, fishing all the way!
He kept putting the pole in the water and saying "I fink i got sumpin!"
These two don't look alike AT ALL....
A nice lady who lives in the neighborhood takes it upon herself to be the keeper of the ducks.
She will question your motives for being at the pond (to see the ducks), ask if/what/how much you fed them (we didn't feed them anything), ask if we let our dog off the leash to chase the ducks (are you serious? NO), she will even tell your 2 year old about the proper hand scooping technique to adequately spread the duck food out to all the ducks so as not to skip any, and let him know if he could put his hand a little more like a scoop. (lady, he is 2)
BUT, he loved getting to feed them and see them all come up to him like they were great friends, and he asks to go back pretty much every day, so I guess duck lady didn't scare him too much!
I know what we will be doing tomorrow! Quack quack
