Day 1481 | Early Morning Walks

Our bus stop is a short two blocks from our house. At first, I wasn’t super excited about the jaunt (one more thing to add to a rushed morning, you know?), but it’s actually really lovely. I haven’t been out in the morning sun and the crisp fall air without being totally rushed in a long time. Maybe ever. For those few minutes we’re waiting for the bus every morning, the boys and I have nowhere to be and I don’t have my to do list bearing down on me. I enjoy the sunshine on my face and the excitement emanating from the boys as they await their ride to school. 

Talk to me again about this “lovely morning wait” in the dead of winter and I might not be as enthusiastic. But, for now, I’ll enjoy every second.
