An Impromptu Picnic

I promised my girl a picnic, and so, however hastily thrown together, a picnic indeed we did have. She teaches me so much, this little lady of mine.
Before I became a mother, I never knew how much fun it could be to simply throw last night's leftover chicken legs, an apple, and a bottle of water into a basket, toss the porch swing blanket onto the (slightly damp) ground, and just sit, and munch, and look and listen to it all.

Of course, like mother/like daughter, any endeavor is best accompanied with a pile of books. Just in case.

And yes, fall is absolutely on her way.......
