Eliot's New Swing!

The neighbors who live next door to my parents house have a swing hanging from the tree in front of their house for their grandchildren. Whenever Eliot sees the swing (with or without someone in it), he points to it. My mom had mentioned a few times how sad it makes her that she doesn't have a swing for Eliot. The trees at my folks house don't really have any good "swing" branches and the ones that do are really too high up to reach. The other day, we went out around the house determined to find a branch that would work. We found one that might work. It was a high one and it hangs over the driveway-- not really the best location, but if anyone could make it work, it would be Ted... and that he did :)

I found a used swing on Craigslist and we picked it right up. Boy, oh boy did Eliot love his new swing! He was nonstop smiles!
