Not sure what the right words to describe my recent trip to Southern California are but I am going to share what I learned and some beautiful flowers. Before what I learned, why I did it. I had not been on my own thinking of myself since before my toddl… instagr.am/p/Cr_joDIuhQ7/

The tulips are popping and the trees are flexing along our stroll to the science museum. Today was a family affair which orients the walk inward to conversation with bursts of keeping a relaxed toddler awake by point out exciting things like tulips and g… instagr.am/p/CrHlJFHr7Vk/

Did my new post-drop off walk this morning. Cold and rainy today. Definitely got the corduroys and boots out. But the grey sky’s and rain drops made usual scenes like the river and the willow at the library more romantic. Something to be viewed while cos… instagr.am/p/CqViAxkONAP/

So many 50 degree days! Hurrah! Days are lengthening and so are the shadows. Many afternoons of little walks to the park and to daycare pickup. Stopping to notice the light, shadows, buds, and growth. : : #walkyourcity #sublimecity #solo #rambler #cambri… instagr.am/p/CqGlyksPU3-/

After a long weekend of a sick and teething toddler and a visit from our family, which makes the sick and teething toddler clingier to my body than when there is no one around, I had an afternoon to myself. After enjoying the silence of the house for a w… instagr.am/p/Cpu7hn6OIct/

Finished my long Tuesday ‘reverse’ walk, curled up with coffee in the ☀️. : Trying to get back into some sort of weekly walking practice. This is week 2 and I did my new walk in reverse from daycare drop off. Every time I do my walk in reverse I truly e… instagr.am/p/CoplgtZLujR/

I took for myself a ‘French’ morning, a morning where I focus on my desire, pleasure, and body before productivity, an absolute necessity for living. I went for the new version of my 2hr walk in the frozen sunshine and took time to stop and enjoy the sme… instagr.am/p/CoXfWRTSHDA/
