I just spent 2 hours with half an eye on a bright orange bobble floating in a pond, attached to a hook and a worm, waiting on it to move. The other half of my eye was watching Huck while he fished.
My Huckleberry loves to fish and does it every day after school. He usually goes with a buddy (it's at a pond just across the field from our house) but today he asked me if I would go with him, so I did.
I enjoyed watching him with his rod and reel, wearing his ratty jeans, muddy boots and black t-shirt with the sleeves cut off that said "If you think I'm scary, you should see my sister".
It's spring break in our school system and it has been thoroughly enjoyed by Lina and Huck. They stayed with their best friends while I worked, and when I was home, their best fiends came here. They have roamed the woods, ridden horses through the local national forest, caught fish, shot BB guns at targets, listened to Harry Potter on CD and had nightly sleepovers. Good stuff.

Our spring break wont be for a few more weeks, but we have a play date at our house today. And we are having the same kind of fun. Free playing, making Easter eggs, baking brownies, etc.
I still remember spending hours fishing as a kid. I loved those long lazy days watching my bobber bob with the sun glinting on the water. Sigh!
My girls don't have break for another couple of weeks. Unfortunately I will not be able to take any time off.

I dont think I ever hated to see springbreak end like I did this one.
hope all is well getting back to the daily grind.
I use to fish with my grandfather in the summers, and miss it... I love Spring, it has definitely filled me with the urge to get outside lately (and unfortunately my cat too.)
