Guess who took her first spin on the boat today? SD has been soaking up his last week of “freedom” before starting his new job on Monday. He’s had some time to do things around the house, spent a day with his two best girls and spent quite a bit of time on the water. Ella had been begging to go fishing with him and today was the day. I packed her a sack lunch, she was very particular about her outfit and I had to get her up early and help her get dressed and ready for her big day.
You might ask, how did it go? Not very good; the pictures are a bit misleading. Daddy said her major complaints were that the “boat was moving too much”, “it might tip over”, “we might sink” and “I can’t see the shore”. My personal favorite story from the day? She needed to potty and wasn’t thrilled about being held over the side of the boat. I’m guessing that’s right around the time they packed it up and headed home.
I think next time we’ll just fish the catfish pond on the farm.
