| A: | Hey honey! Where were you? |
| B: | I decided to take Kenny to the park and get some fresh air. |
| A: | How was it? Were there a lot of kids? |
| B: | It wasn’t too crowded, but we had a great time! We got on the see-saw together, the went on a couple of different slides and then I tried to go with him in the jungle gym, but I didn’t fit. |
| A: | Sounds like fun! When we go he always just likes to play in the sandbox. |
| B: | Yeah, but today he was really hyper. He even got on the monkey bars and then he went on to go on the swings for a half hour. I’m exhausted! |
| A: | You should go to the park more often since you don’t go to the gym anymore! |
