We had a marvelous spring weekend in the middle of February (upper 60s, sunshine, and gentle breeze)! I changed the oil in Lea’s van and washed the Technical Writing Express, and we took in the Mill Creek Greenway this afternoon. It’s somewhere between 0.3 and 0.4 miles from beginning to end, but it looks as if it will eventually continue under Browns Ferry Rd.
I didn’t think it actually watching the boys, but when I was going through the photos to pick one for the blog, I was walloped by how much time has passed. Our babies aren’t babies anymore.
I’m so proud of them. I deeply enjoy watching them begin to think and talk about bigger things, as bittersweet as it is. I’m looking forward to a lot of walks and hikes this spring, summer, and fall with them, and was delighted to be able to steal one from the winter with them and their beautiful mother today.
