Picnic

Today was my company picnic. Marina looks forward to this every year, mostly the water fountains she gets to play in while we are there. When we arrived there were quite a few children already playing and she was timid at first. She was hungry before the food was served, so she was grumpy for a while.

Once lunch was ready, she ate two chicken drumsticks and a lot of fruit salad. After that, she was her usual perky self. She played in the fountains with the children. Some of the younger kids looked to her to lead them. She was quite happy to do so.

She was hungry a bit later and she wanted to try some steak. She tried a few bites and she said she liked it. Then she went back to playing. She found a spot where the water was pooling and she sat and played there for a while. When it was time to go home, she didn’t want to go. It was good to see her have so much fun.
