Saturday, I took our 3 year old, 21 month old and 6 month old on a walk...That is one way to describe our afternoon...
On Saturday, my children and I strolled around the neighborhood, stopping at Sky Zone Trampoline Park, Dos Reales for lunch, and the park for some sliding, swinging and soccer-watching...That is definitely a better description of our activity.
But here are the MOMENTS CHERISHED...
…AnnaJoy's excitement over seeing beautiful yellow dandelions, grabbing one and presenting it as a gift "to you and daddy"
…Our neighbor boy running after us to proudly announce: "Today I opened a savings account!" I shook his hand and was properly impressed and he gave Lilly and AnnaJoy each a sticker from the bank
…AnnaJoy's eager independence to walk ahead and "meet you at the steps"
…The girls' awe and wonder at the rockin' trampoline park with jumping kids everywhere and a huge screen TV
…interacting with our friend Maria at Dos Reales who is always so sweet and loving to the girls
...Lilly putting her sticker on my nose, finding it hilarious, then reaching her arms out over and over again for an "Ug!"
..Marveling at the lit up fire truck across from the park and the excitement over waving at the firemen and them waving back
...AnnaJoy climbing up and down each bleacher as we walked round the baseball fields
...TJ's excited wave as he saw that his neighbors had come to his soccer game
...Lilly and AnnaJoy grabbing hands and gleefully swooshing down the double slide together
...AnnaJoy picking up a pricky ball from a sweet gum tree, saying it's going to grow into a sunflower seed
...Baby Allison’s delight in eating banana baby food, lunging at the spoon and shoving it in her mouth
...and AnnaJoy finishing off the banana baby food when I left the room!!!
These are precious, irreplaceable moments to cherish, and this was all in one afternoon. What are your moments cherished today? I'd love for you to share one of your moments!
