kicking back with a picnic snack

For afternoon snack one of the girls favorite requests is "picnic snack"... sounds fancy, but it's simple really: eating snack sitting on the living room floor, picnic style. Though Lydia isn't a big fan of sitting down for long, so it's more like a roving picnic for her.

A few days ago I took these two photos of "picnic snack" - the girls were sitting in their chairs under the living room windows, chomping on some raisins and peanuts. Yum.




I love that something as simple as "picnic snack" can be the highlight of the hour! "Yay Lydia, we get to have picnic snack," is Julianna's typical response. One of the joys of motherhood is most definitely that providing little joys for your little ones can be so simple :)
