Out back this afternoon with the little one, who came out to the sandbox carrying the white wooden car and did not put it down the whole time. The sand itself got less attention than expected — the pinwheel stuck in the middle got a few spins, the wagon and buckets stayed mostly where they were.

A lot of the afternoon was just being carried around the yard instead, still gripping the car, looking at everything but the sandbox. The canopy over the top is earning its keep now that the afternoons are warming up. Socks came off white and went back inside gray.
