About a week ago Piper and I went to the local park to play. A group of older kids were playing in the leaves. Piper was quickly invited to help make a big pile of leaves. She was very excited to be included.
Piper took her work very seriously. She would gather two handfuls of leaves and walk solemnly over to the growing leaf pile. She looked like a flower girl walking down the aisle.
What do you think Piper did when all of the other kids decided the pile was big enough to jump in? She just stood there. There was no reaction, and even with my suggestions to jump in, she just liked watching everyone else. And it's not like she hasn't played in leaves before; we had just done it the day before in our own backyard.
