So Ethan got a kite for his birthday from one of his friends and has been begging someone, anyone, to help him fly it. Finally one evening I decided it was time to put down what I was doing and help him .
We went onto the driveway and starting flying....I'm not sure if you've ever seen a kids face the first time they ever fly their own kite, but I forgot how cool it is. Ethan could not believe how high we got it! I could have helped him get it higher, but didn't because we weren't in a open field or anything...no power lines, so that's good. But we were still able to get it pretty high!
Ethan LOVED flying it! And Sadie loved watching!
Watching the kite soar in the air was so calming. It was kind of therapy for stress. I guess sometimes you just have to sit back, take a look at the simple things and breathe out.
Thanks Ethan.

That's some good kite flying (and some good picture taking) ! ! !
How fun is that! I've never been a very good kite flyer...Joe makes fun of me because I can't get it to go high at all! Way to go, Ethan!
Oh kites. You always have such good intentions with them. And then you only use them once. You either end up breaking it, or never quite getting around to it again. Good for you! You at least did the one time!
Oh, and I think it's hilarious that you called the toiletpaper victim "rude"
And...you sang a solo? Wow! Way to go!
Nothing beats the simple pleasure of flying a kite, does it? We helped Andrew fly a Spiderman kite in the spring and he was enthralled (hope I spelled that right). I couldn't figure out how to take pictures of it though, thanks for the ideas! check out my new blog design when you have a minute...not as cute as yours, but I'm working on it.
