Father's Day
Today was Father's day, the end of Father's Day weekend. It was one of the best weekends in a long time. Jakub made me a picture and a box at art class on Friday -- fabulous! When I called home from work on Friday Jakub was so excited to tell me all about how he drew the sky and sun and grass. As you can see he is very abstract.
Bogusia took me bike shopping and we dropped quite a bit of cash on a new bike for me, kid's seats, and a few other bike accessories. Almost bought a canoe as well, but we figure in the end we'll rent until season's end and then buy a discounted boat.
Yesterday we did a lot of outdoor stuff including taking a paddle-boat down the canal by Atwater. Small hint: paddle boats are not very fun; go in a canoe or kayak instead unless you want a lot of excercise.

I prefer paddle boating over
I prefer paddle boating over kayaking. We did both in Punta Cana, and I felt that kayaking required a lot of upper body strength (which I didn't have). I felt much more at ease paddle boating, which requires more leg strength (which I feel that I have because of running and John definitely has because of cycling and running). So, I guess my advice is the opposite. Go in a paddle boat unless you want a lot of excercise!
