Camping on the back deck

One of Keira’s recent birthday presents was a fold-out camping chair. In an attempt to guilt (or shame) us into actually taking her camping – which will be difficult as our camping gear in total is that chair alone – she now takes that chair out onto the back deck and just sits there, staring at the backyard and nearby trees.

Quite the life, if you ask me.
