A little hikewalk/reflecting...

On saturday my kiddos and I went for a walk at our local botanical garden. The weather was oh so lovely!! We walked, well I did and the kids ran the whole time! Isnt it crazy how children have so much energy!? They had a great time. We have been lots of times but to them its like the first time they have been there! As I watched them my eyes started to... as my husband says "get misty" and I realized my kids have grown so fast and that they are truly unique individuals. Being a mother can be so hard you know. The way you act and your attitude and how you percieve and go about everything is being absorbed. Their brains are like sponges at this age. It is so critical and scary at times to think about how you react because when your children are adults that is how they will be. Trust me I know! I'm just like my mother no matter how hard I try to teach myself to be a different way becasue that was what was instilled in me as child. Anyways I was just reflecting during my walk. Its soothes the soul. You should try it sometime! Here are some pictures that I took.
