One of the really good things about Shelbi being 10 is that she feels old, and wants to do grown-up things.  She asked me if she could take Bailey outside to play and promised that she'd take good care of her.  I had no doubt of Shelbi's ability to keep Bailey safe, and welcomed the chance to let someone else be in charge for a while.  So this is what my afternoon looked like outside.  Inside, I was sitting in a quiet house, reading.
