After playing in the water for at least 20 minutes or so, one of the ground's keepers came up to me and said, "Make sure you bathe your kids when you get home, we put chemicals in the water so that algae doesn't build up." Of course, it was too good to be true. But, since we'd already been playing in it, why stop? So, the kids played to their heart's content. And, we laughed about our naivety.

babbling brooks...
On Monday I met my friend Sushma and her two girls at Reid Park to play. We wandered over to the duck pond, and then the kids discovered a nice babbling brook to play in. Both mine and Sushma's hearts jumped for joy when we saw this sight of kids playing in water, a rarity here in the desert. We truly just melted inside and confessed how we daydream of such things.

Love these! Sonali was especially so delighted to see these pics - she laughed and said "Ezra is looking at me!"
It looks so natural and picturesque (just don't think about the chemicals and water pump ;)
Love that last one! Waddle, waddle, waddle. In response to your question about the wedding, yes!
that does look beautiful! I'm sure the kids loved it. I'm glad the worker didn't ask you to stop playing!
love,
