Picnic!

Ben loves picnics. On Friday after school (his last day in the Rainbow Room; poor Sara was in tears because she loves the kids so), where they had cupcakes for Ben's birthday and cookies for Rhys', Ben went to our local park, Cabot Park, for a Chinese food picnic with Mama, Daddoo, Dodo, and Liam and his family. Ben and Liam thought this was the most fun ever (at least since the party at Bella's). As well as eating their noodles, they ran around, got buckets out of the sandbox to be firehats, and did somersaults and "fleeps" (Ben carefully distinguished between these, because Liam calls his flips, and Ben calls his somersaults). (Ben wore his new swan boat T-shirt, a present from Dodo.)
