making mud pies

A few weeks ago we had some friends over for dinner. After dinner they all went out to play in the backyard with the daddies. Awhile later I realized the kids had made their way back into the house and were playing in the basement. I found my little girl outside making mud pies in the sand box all by herself. Completely happy. I think she has logged more hours in the sandbox than Aiden has. She is completely happy to be totally filthy, squishing muck through her fingers and singing her songs. And yes that picture is her about to throw sand on me!
