Our walks


Our walks consist of....
 eyes searching for creatures, berries and bugs
fists clinging sweet peas and daisies
fingers pointing at diggers and slugs and bunnies
 mouths sampling cherries, thimble berries and dew berries
dirty boots marinating in some puddles and stomping in others
 skirts and hair fluttering in the wind
arms reaching for momma
tired feet dragging
