throwing rocks!

Lately I have been really thinking about letting my kids be kids. It may sound dumb, but I try to think of having a picture moment with at least a couple of them each day. (not that I do take pictures, but things they will remember doing with me.)  Today the sun was shining, miracle! So I decided to take Carson on a walk down the road, which we do a lot, but today I thought I would go at his pace and just wait while he did whatever he wanted to.  It is so amazing to sit back and just watch your kids, I mean really watch them, it is amazing to see what they do, how much they learn and explore.  WE walked down to the ditch where the creek is running, sat on the side of the road and threw rocks.  We all know little boys can do this for hours!  It was so fun to see him giggle when he would actually get one in the water and try to say uh-oh when it rolled into the grass instead. It was great fun , even though I am sure he won't remember this specific thing, he will hopefully know how much I love him because I choose to spend time with him.  Isn't the world just a beautiful place and I am all the more blessed because I get to share it with my kids.
