Our Nature Walk

There is nothing like a nature walk with 3 energetic little people, sun-screened up, wearing hats, sun glasses, and filled with enthusiasm to enjoy life and the smallest things: sunshine, tiny flowers, shiny leaves, buds, the laughter of other children in the neighborhood. We enjoyed a beautiful nature walk today through our area. Penelope fell asleep in the jogger as the three big kids trekked along. As soon as we got home, we spread out our discoveries and wrote and drew about our findings, while investigating our finds with the magnifying glasses. Afterwards, we glued Madge's and Peach's entries into their nature journals. (We had fun looking at their nature journal and their entry from this time last year.) What a beautiful morning. Thank you, Lord, for the small moments that make the biggest impact on our lives.
