NDNorth: Children's Day pt 2


June 1, 2017, dawned clear and warm. The three small ones who live at New Day North Care Center are in for a treat—an outing to a local park to celebrate Children’s Day.
Ruth grins at Shua Li Rose as if to say, “Can you believe this???”

Ruth somehow knows she is in for a treat…she just doesn’t know how wonderful it will be.

 She is beyond happy to be able to “get her feet wet” in the lake water.

Shua Li Rose is having a totally new experience…squishing her toes in the mud.

While a bit unsure, she is letting her feet sink down into the muddy soil.

 And now she is investigating this strange substance that is covering her feet.

 Frank is thoroughly enjoying his chance to splash in the fountain.

He enjoys this time to be out in the late spring sun and to be celebrated for being a child.

Ruth is thrilled to get her chance to dip her feet in the fountain.

No matter where she goes, Shua Li Rose always seems to make new friends.

As the outing draws to a close, Ruth and Frank are happy to rest on the laps of New Day North Staff members and savor this wonderful experience.
