The swing


What child doesn't need a swing. When we bought our new house the first thing that I loved was the big weeping willow tree in the back yard. The tree was covered in green leaves still. I could see us all under this tree during the hot days of summer just watching the branches sway in the sky. I could see Faith and Champ swinging on a swing and sitting in the branches of it. I couldn't ask for a better tree. As the weather warms up I am excited to see the tree come to life again after being dormant all winter. I will gladly pick up all it's branches and twigs that fall over the winter just so we can all be able to enjoy it's beauty right now. I couldn't wait until Faith's birthday on Monday to give her the swing. The weather is just too nice to have another day pass without being able to enjoy our weeping willow. Who says a birthday only has to last one day. It is so more fun to devote a week to celebrating.
