Easy as flying a kite

Have you heard the saying before - "as easy as flying a kite?" I am not really sure if that IS a saying but seems I have heard it and I can say with confidence that flying a kite is not really that easy, I mean sure my 2 year old can do it but the wind is so unpredictable!

As happens every year we experienced a temperature drop on Wednesday, just a 20 degree one, enough to make me get out my sweat pants. The cool air also brought some wind with it and it was just warm enough to go outside (ok maybe it wasn't THAT cold) - so we decided we would set loose a kite on the front lawn.


Summer wanted to do it between not wanting to do it when the bird kept swooping down at the ground and wanting to do it when daddy was doing it, and she did it just fine, fine when the bird stayed up for almost a minute, which wasn't very often stupid wind. But she still had fun and I had to take pictures so you would believe me.


Not that you wouldn't believe me, probably just another excuse I can use to take more pictures.

Anyway she looked like a pro, wind and all.



We all had fun, the end.
