Sophie's Walking Tour

The kids and I walk around town quite a bit. It is a small town and we can walk to lots of the things we need, plus it gets us out of the house, and is kind of like exercise. (We walk at a really slow pace, so I don't think it full on qualifies as exercise).

Throughout the course of the summer, Sophia has established landmarks on our walks. It was pretty nice today (70 degrees!) and I figure that our walking days are winding down.

As such, it is my pleasure to bring you the city of Atchison through the eyes of a two year old.

Enjoy Sophie's description of the various sights about town.

" There's our church where Dad becoming pastor."
 The little tour guide herself.
 "Oh No! Watch out for that lion!!!" (Yeah...I don't get it either).
 "Look! It's Christmas! Hello Christmas!"
 "I want a soda!" (She is such a little Hoosier - we say Pop)
 "There's the castle!" (It is really the post office)
 "Oh, that is so cute. It is just so cute."
 "There is that sad lion." (Then she usually pretends to eat it...you know, like you do).
 "Turtle! I see that Turtle!"
"There is the Y. We go to the Y?" (We go almost everyday, so it is one of her favorites).

And there you go. That is Atchison according to Sophia Jane.
