in like a lion...

March has definitely come in like a lion!  The weather around here has been windy and rainy (with a few sunny days thrown in) since March began.  Emma Jane's preschool class had a lesson about kites last week and all the kids in her class were given their very own kites.  She couldn't wait to get hers up in the air!  Luckily, the small park just down the street from our house is a perfect place for kite flying.

Trying to figure out the string...



With Paul holding onto the string,

Emma Jane helped launch the kite.

Getting the hang of it...

So proud of her kite flying skills!

Higher and higher...

Vivi did not understand why the kite was flying away!

Come back kite!

Vivian finally gave up on this kite flying business until...

 

big sis let her give it a try!

In this picture, you can see just how high this kite flew!

Emma Jane, now a self-proclaimed pro, 

had the handle slung casually over her shoulder.

Emma Jane was thrilled to see her kite flying high!

Time to come down!

I'm sure we will be taking Emma Jane's kite for a few more spins before the wind dies down and March goes out like a lamb...
