The blue sky peppered with white clouds coupled with the mild temperatures invited the little boy to play outside. On this trip to the farm, he brought along a gift his aunt gave him. Proudly he displayed his ladybug kite.
He looked for a chance to try it out at the farm.
My husband had just the right field available with easy access. No trees or high wires threatened to bother a serious attempt at flight. Comfortable breezes promised an eventful day.
The little fellow and his Daddy worked with the kite to get it ready for flight. Whoosh! A pocket of wind grabbed the kite and up it went. It climbed so high that it seemed like a dot it the sky. Reeling it in again became a chore, but it worked. The kite came down safely.
How about that? The farm is a great place to work, yet it makes a spacious place where little boys and girls can play.
“Kite Flight” is available through our store. We have placed it on sale for an introductory price of $0.99 each. We have a growing inventory for your browzing pleasure.

Yeah, this worked out nicely. Reminds me of when I was a kid.
