I find that even a short time makes a world of difference in all of our attitudes. We're lucky that for the days we aren't heading to a park that though we have a very small yard, it is fenced in so I can send the children out without me (though I stay in the kitchen so I can still keep an eye on them.) We also have a front porch that they can play on when it rains so they at least are still getting fresh air and can be loud and jump around, even if they can't run. I know these things might not quite meet the standard of Ms. Mason but it's a step in the right direction that I hope will pay off as they get older and can be more independent. My husband is from Alberta so doesn't even count our PA winters as cold which is also something that encourages me to send them out when the "cold" weather comes. <br /><br />The puddle drinking sounds cute, not being the one to have to deal with it!!!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07936654106657579364noreply@blogger.com
