Our walk to the lake

After taking all those pictures on Wednesday we walked Rebekah up to her swimming at the Y. Our city has just finished paving a wonderful pathway so we don't have to cross the busy busy street in the evening time. Then, after dropping her off, Isaac, Elsah and I continue to stroll down the pathway. This is the first time I've really walked this long since being pregnant with Elsah. It was so beautiful. There was just enough breeze in the air that you could sniff the pear trees starting it's bloom. These trees bloom with white flowers. (the picture on the blog) but they give off the most pungent smell. I think these trees are so amazing. They send off an awful smell but the flowers appear so delicate and then in the fall the trees turn into such vibrant amazing colors. So, we walk all the way to the park near us that has a lake. The geese and ducks were at the waters edge. Isaac got right into the big muddy piles and threw sticks and rocks into the water. He found this amazing rock that was at least 5-8 lbs. He walked it all the way home which is at least a good mile. He would stop and rest then continue on. He persevered in bringing it home.
Well, today in our house might be the beginning of sickness. Isaac isn't feeling well. If he's not up and running I know somethings wrong. He didn't want Daddy to leave this morning. That was another clue that he wasn't feeling well either. So, off to take care of my little wee ones and my big helper Rebekah.
