While Charles was at preschool and with the weather so nice, Michelle and I decided to go for a walk. When you go for a walk with Michelle, you go at her pace: SLOW. It is so nice and different from the daily routine. She chattered about the birds, the clouds, the sky, the trees without leaves, the dead grass, and how the flowers had died. We checked out cracks in the sidewalk. We listened to every little noise. It was so much fun. The one thing I thought was true of boys is also true of girls: they are fascinated with sticks. Michelle found this stick at the park. She played with it and walked home with it. She even threw a fit when I told her it could not go in the house.
After having a wonderful walk, we came home and had a tea party. Michelle got these new dishes from us for her birthday and we hadn't tried them out yet. We had a tea party that lasted about 45 minutes. We again talked about everything. Oh to be young again and not have to worry about anything but having fun.
It is mornings like these that remind me why I love being a stay at home mom. Who would my kids walk with or have tea parties with? Thank you Michelle for a wonderful morning full of Michelle and mom time!!
