Practice Run

My nearly two-year-old niece Eve came over early on Sunday morning for a visit while her parents were busy with other obligations. Nick and I took her on a walk to the coffee shop, where we got her a cup of hot chocolate and shared a bagel with her. I think she felt really cool, hanging out with the big kids. Afterward, as we waited outside the shop for Nick, I rested my foot on a snowbank, and Evie did the same. Her foot was at a really awkward angle, and it couldn't have been very comfortable, but I think she just was just getting in the spirit of being a big kid.
