Spending quality time with Walker has been such a special blessing for me. As I have said before, we have set up a daily routine with some variance: breakfast, walking, lunch, nap, snack, pool or park, dinner, bath, and bed. Structure is KEY to sanity!
Yesterday on our first walk in the morning, we went about a mile to the lake by the golf course. There were so many geese. I wanted to be able to let Walker run around and chase them, but I know that they get grumpy, especially when there are younger geese around. We parked the stroller next to a tree in the shade. Soon, they were migrating toward us. As I realized they were passing us, one family (two adults and two little ones) came up pretty close to the stroller and started hissing at us. Thank goodness for graham crackers! I took some out and threw some crumbs at them. They gobbled them up and rushed back to be with the other group. Walker was pointing and squeeling like crazy!
Later that night as I was laying him down for bed, I was saying prayers for him. He had been pretty playful, but as I said, " we thank thee for having fun at the park and seeing the geese", Walker started mumbling along with me! I'm so glad for having the gospel and the knowlege and the truth in my life to raise up my children in righteousness.

Sarah--Walker sounds so cute! The geese story is funny. I was out running the other day and they hissed at me too and I was scared that they would chase after me and Jordan (he was in the jogging stroller)--Luke thought I was crazy. Now I know to pack some snacks for them and they will leave me alone. :)
