Sam loves playing outdoors. If left to him, he would never come in. When we sit down for dinner, he says "picnic table, Momma." He wants to eat on the back deck at his picnic table. He begs to go for walks or bike rides or to the park often. He is a true outdoorsman already.
CedarRock is an outdoorsman's dream, so it's one of Sam's favorite places to go. He has the inside track with the owners and gets pretty special treatment every time he goes. For instance, take this Sunday, while Michael and I attended a church meeting, Sam hung out with Kimmie and Pawpaw. As soon as we arrived at the farm, he went straight out the back door, curled his little hand around his mouth, and belted out his best turkey call. My boy is one with the animals for sure. Later on, during probably their third Gator ride of the evening, they spotted this...and caught it.
Even though I'm not itching to ever be this close to even the friendliest of snakes, I am thankful for Kimmie and Pawpaw who are willing to let Sam experience them close up.
He's learning so much, so fast.
