Playground Montage
Sig and I went to to the playground.
"Why are we here again?" I ask Sig.
"I saw a butterfly here the other day. I wanna catch it." Sig replied.
I don't think that bug will still be here.
But I was wrong.
"There!" Sig points at the butterfly. He runs towards it.
He tries crazy attempts to catch the butterfly.
Attempt #1
Sig climbs up on the gliders. From there, he jumps into a tree. He climbs the tree to the top. The butterfly is there. Sig reaches to get it, but the branch he is standing on breaks. He hangs from a branch below him. The butterfly flies away.
Attempt #2
Sig sits on a teeter-totter. He looks up at the butterfly above him.
"What are you doing?" I ask him.
"I'm gonna get launched into the air. Can you jump on this?" Sig asks me.
"No."
Sig looks up at the butterfly. He sighs.
Attempt #3
Sig climbs up the jungle gym. He then jumps over to the play building. He climbs up to the platforms of the building. A roof blocks him from the butterfly.
He's not gonna get up there.
I was wrong.
Sig starts climbing on the underside of the roof. He pulls himself up. The butterfly flies away.
"Come on." Sig notes with an annoyed tone.
Attempt #4
Sig swings on the swings. Eventually, he stands up on it. Sig jumps off toward the butterfly, but misses. He falls flat on his face. The butterfly flies away.
Sig lays in the center of the playground.
"Are you done?" I ask him.
"Nope." Sig responds as he stands up, "I'm gonna catch that butterfly."
He runs off. I palm my face.
Attempt #5
Sig climbs up the firepole. He hangs his legs on the bar thingy. He swings with his legs to try and catch it. The butterfly flies away.
Sig sits on a spinny thingy.
"You thinking of another plan?" I ask.
"Yep."
Just then, the butterfly flies to Sig and sits on his nose.
"Yay." Sig exclaimed the best he could with his monotone voice.
Sig noticed something else.
"Ooh, a cricket." Sig noted as his put the butterfly in his waist bag.
"Oh no." I palmed my face.
