Chase’s Life on the Farm

Kids have such a unique viewpoint of things. Sometimes I won’t even notice something or think it’s that great, but my kids will see the awesomeness in ordinary things, point it out, & it’s suddenly an exciting thing.

Chase was the only one who was intensely THRILLED when he & Grandpa discovered that one of my parents’ trees had fallen across the road & needed to be hauled out to the field. After sprinting inside the house to announce it to the rest of us, he headed out with Grandpa to take care of this urgent matter. I got out there in time to take a few shots.

Driving without Grandpa’s help– very focused on his important job. I love it!

Another hard day’s work is done.

Chase cracks me up. He is a very intense, curious child who always wants to be busy & doing projects. Frankly, he’s a major handful for me… But he cracks me up.

I went outside to round him up for bedtime that evening, but Grandpa was testing out the big water faucets, so I couldn’t very easily pull Chase away.

He enjoyed turning this big one on & off & seeing how powerful the flow was.

Then Grandpa suggested that he strip down since he was already drenched…

…Alright! Par-tay!!!! (I could not stop laughing.)

He’d run through the raging water & it would throw him forward a foot or two. Pure delight!
