This one goal has been my very favorite 18 in 2018. It forces me to do something different when sometimes I wouldn’t naturally gravitate toward going for a hike. I’m always extremely glad I did, and find the time I spend with the kids hiking around getting easier and easier as the months have gone on. Yesterday Lucy looked at me and said: this is really fun. This is coming from a girl who in January told me: I’m just not an outside girl :)
I’ve been doing body pump at 5am with my friend Karen 2x a week, and she is such an intentional person. She asked me as we were standing in the dark YMCA parking lot yesterday at 6:15am what she could pray for me about that day. I thought for a minute and said: I really want to give my kids a lot of attention today. God gave me the best day to do just that. We hiked to the falls, walked up the stairs to the lookout, then made our way back to the car. I didn’t want our time to end so I took the kids to Knoke’s for a treat and we sat down by the river and were just together it was one of my favorite days in a long time.
Look at Lucy’s tie shoes!!! Ahhhh!!! She’s so big!
Look at those kids RUN!!!
I got so hot I had to take off my long sleeve and wear a tank top with my vest. I look so silly in this picture but I just love it. Olle is easy to love and he gives love easily. He’s such a boy, but he sure has some big feelings and I hope this never changes.
Here was the spot we stopped and ate our treats. It was seriously just perfect.
2 months left and my goal will be complete!
