Lately, some of my favorite moments with these kids are our long walks to the bus stop. The weather is colder, and it often takes a great deal of effort and courage to brave the 30-40 degree chill with all four kids. This week has been one of Ford utilization...Mom is sick, but last week we walked often! Usually, the boys hop onto their bikes, the girls get tucked into the jogger, surrounded by blankets, and we take off for a morning run/ride. Connor's bike, however, has a mind of it's own and will not cooperate with us...the tires are an endless money pit. So....until Daddy has some time to fix them, we are left to walk everywhere.
I encouraged the boys a few mornings to make the morning trek with donuts and hot cocoa! They loved it! Half way through the walk, Connor complained of tummy cramps because we were walking too fast!
The girls get their fair share of running too!
And the joy on their faces is priceless...but the scream of terror is excruciating once I gather them back into the jogger. Oh well! There cannot be joy without sorrow, right?
