Sunday in the park!

This has to be one of Maja's favourite park toys -- Vladimir's car. Note, please, that Vladimir is not in or near the car because he couldn't care less about it once he's at the playground. The girls, however, LOVE the car. Maja prefers to ride, but if she loses her seat to Maizy then she will push. And, amazingly enough, she CAN push the car -- even if she can barely reach the handle. The playground has an unofficial, unspoken agreement: if you bring a toy to the park, it will be shared. Whether your child likes it or not. So, occasionally there are fights over toys -- especially the toy baby strollers, and, as was the case on Monday, the busy bee (a pull toy where the wings flapped and turned). It's a hard lesson, learning how to share and take turns.
