Garfield Park Conservatory


 Yesterday Evelyn and I visited the Garfield Park Conservatory. The weather was perfect, and there was plenty of room to run....



...and run...


 ...and run!


We also enjoyed the sights, both indoors and out. 



 There was a great slide, dirt to dig in, and plants to spray!

Mr. Sun

Evelyn loves to sing lately, and she learns lots of songs at day care. One current favorite is Mr. Sun: 

Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, please shine down on me! 
Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, hiding behind the tree-
These little children are asking you, to please come out so we can play with you! 
Oh Mr Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, please shine down on, 
please shine down on, 
please shine down on me!

Here is Evelyn's version, riddled with distractions! Maybe you'll pick up a snippet of those lyrics here and there :)
