Rhonda Marinkovic: The Walk



We took a walk in the cool, crisp fall air, my kids and I.

I so enjoyed listening to their happy chatter of the things that are important to them; new school, grades, friends, soccer, the playground.  We stopped to enjoy the view, we stopped to tie a shoe, and we kicked pinecones ahead of our pace.

When we got home and all tucked into bed I remembered that even though we have moments that are busy and crazy and stressful, my kids are growing so quickly and I am thankful for that walk we took today.

Yes there is no better way to recharge then a walk...or sitting down to dinner together some of our best conversations have been around the dinner table!
