Ava's Rock Friends

This morning Ava wanted Rich to push her in the swing, so while I got ready they went outside.  When I was done I peeked outside and saw Ava up in the tree.  I wasn't surprised because she loves to be in the tree.  I went outside to see what was going on and was thoroughly entertained.

Ava had a few big rocks with her up in the tree and was referring to them as her rock friends.  As I walked out she was telling Rich her rock friends were sick and needed to go to the doctor.  Ava then started handing the rocks to Rich and I, so we could take them to the doctor.  This was weird, crazy, and hilarious.  We were both laughing.  Then Ava announced her rock friends wanted to swing.  She got out of the tree and put her rock friends on the swing.  Rich locked them in and then Ava pushed them.

It was priceless and I'm so glad I was able to capture the moment.  Ava sure does have a weird, wild, and creative imagination.  It is always entertaining to see what she will come up with next.  She makes me laugh, smile, and enjoy life more.  I am grateful to be Ava's mom.

Ava in the tree holding a rock friend.  She is also yelling.  She liked yelling over and over because of the echo.  She is also wearing her "Buzz Boots" which are probably too small but she loves them.  This is her second pair and we are considering buying another for this coming winter.  I know we are crazy but she really does love them.

Rocks strapped in and ready to swing.

Ava pushing the rocks.  What a good friend she is.
