Today we slept in and woke up to the sounds of the rooster crowing. It was delightful and I want to do that every day! It was a gorgeous morning so we took the kids on a walk down our long driveway and along the road that leads up to the house. There are hundreds of flowers and fruit trees and it’s wonderfully green everywhere! It was a warm morning so of course the boys took their shirts off to run down the road.
Josh is awesome and gave the kids a Spanish lesson as we walked. We learned the words for road (calle), flowers (flores), dirt (tierra), tree (arbol), boy (nino), girl (nina) and electricity (electricidade). He had the kids repeating the words back to him as we walked and they all were awesome to repeat them back and learn them. Desh has been repeating calle and nino all day! They also had an impromptu lesson on spiders and webs and how they catch their food. Josh showed them how something falls onto a spiders web and they immediately go to it to determine if it’s food or not. Super cool for those boys to see that! We have a few lightweights when it comes to heat and exercise and before long all the boys were sitting in the middle of the road taking “a rest”.
This evening was awesome weather as a storm rolled through and we watched the rain come, then the sun and the a rainbow to finish it off! We played frisbee on the lawn and had a hot dog roast tonight out on the patio. We couldn’t have asked for a more gorgeous setting to eat out. Desh is rocking his Fanny pack that grammie gave him and josh and I stumbled upon some extra tall cans of Dr Pepper that we were sure we wouldn’t see again until we got back home! Overall a great day in the country here in Puerto Rico!
