When we were dating, Alex would periodically take me to a park near the seminary he attended at the time. He is pretty fond of duck ponds and thought I would be too. He envisioned us sitting on the grass, perusing books on end while the ducks quack amiably around us. Unfortunately, when ducks that are almost as big as us persistently follow us for food, they don't rank high on my list for favorite creatures. I get a mild case of the heebie jeebies around them. Consequently, jaunts to the duck pond were fewer than Alex had anticipated. Until it occurred to him this week that it is on the way to the grocery store. He insisted we drop by so that Serene (and he) could see the ducks. She had absolutely no qualms about the gargantuan birds. They got up close and personal with them while I stood from afar in safety, snapping pictures. It makes my heart so full to watch them interact. Alex is elated to have nabbed a daddy-daughter date locale for the upcoming years. Until then, I have a feeling we'll be stopping by every so often during our weekly Trader Joe's runs.

P.S. Enter here to win a pair of Freshly Picked moccs like Serene's in the pictures above, except in the size and color of your choice! Giveaway ends tonight at 11:59pm PST.
