This past weekend the family and I went up to Gram and Grandpa's pond to catch some catfish. This is Kenli's first experience with fishing. Though she doesn't really quite grasp what is going on, she shook her head yes when asked "Do you wanna go fishin'?" So we loaded up a pole for her and headed off to catch some catfish.
Once we arrived, I was pretty amazed at this little gal, Kenli. I originally thought that she'd want nothing to do with fishing, yet she took to Daddy's lessons rather well. She threw some bread into the pond to bring the fish up, she held onto the pole just like Daddy showed her, she even thought about touching some sticky chicken liver (the bait)but eventually turned away from that (thank God)! Although, once a fish was caught, she wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. We asked her if she wanted to touch the fish as it lay there flopping about it front of her, and she screamed "NOOOO!!!" Can you see that in the picture? What can I say, her reaction reminds me of her mother's when she went fishing once or twice as a child.
Meanwhile, Miss Keira and I just sat back and enjoyed the show.
