"Swinging" into Spring!

Did you know that we have a ditch complete with a rope swing right in our very backyard? It's a year-round attraction at our house. Especially since it's a house full of boys!That reliable rope swing has brought hours of fun (and upper body strength too, I might add) over the ditch and through the icy winters, the muddy springs, the wet summers, and the cool falls (double meaning there: they swing in the "cool autumn fall" AND there are numerous times each year that they "fall into the cool" water!).

And now that spring has sprung, the two-year-old thinks he is just as big and strong and capable as his older brothers by swinging on it too (except for the fact that he isn't, so adult supervision is required)!!
