Fields (or a Pen) of Grass and a Memory

I promise. We are doing "school work."

But this week it's just not as much fun to write about our math lesson or our reading lesson as it is to write about playing in the sand, feeding the calf, or frolicking in the tall grass.

Moments before he was "running" through this tall grass after he had fetched the frisbee that I accidentally threw in the unused (at the moment) animal pen.

Sidenote: I told me earlier that I did not throw the frisbee correctly, do it "this" way (as he demonstrated). He was good. His dad will be proud. I am still not good at throwing a frisbee and will need some serious intervention time to remediate.

As he was running through this tall grass I had a flashback.

Little House on the Prairie.

Seriously, as I watched the young man running back with the frisbee, my heart stopped! Good thing I thought quickly, had him stop and grabbed this photo!!
