Just a walk to the park

Today Payton and I took a walk to the little park near our house. It is a small park but she loves it and it has her favorite thing -a slide!




She showed me how she can slide on her tummy and how she can climb on things. We had fun climbing and sliding together - just the two of us. Out in the cold foggy fall morning having fun. It is fun to look at things from her perspective and see the world in a different view one that I knew a long time ago when I was her age but don't remember. It is nice just having a lazy morning and being able to take a walk to the park.




One the way back we picked up a few of the beautiful red leaves that had fallen on the ground.I love how beautiful the leaves are this time of year.




Now we are snuggled up watching Winnie the Pooh her first movie and she is loving it. If we had some hot chocolate and popcorn it would be perfect.
Recently I found a new blog that I love and it has inspired me to look at things differently and try to do things maybe I would not normally do - bake something new, decorate in a new way or even try sewing something.The blog is called Enjoying the small things -kellehamton.com a mom who is around the same age at me and has two young girls one who is Paytons age. I think I can relate to what is happening in her life even though she has two kids one with Down syndrome a challenge that she has accepted as a challenge to live her life better and to make the world better for her daughters.
So today I will breathe and enjoy the quiet moments I have with Payton, let God speak to me, do some cleaning, school work and just remember to live one day at a time for each days has it own special moments to cherish and we will never get them back.
