Happy Thursday! The thing that makes today so great is that tomorrow is FRIDAY!! :)
Today I'm sharing a lil about something I enjoy doing during the work week.
Early morning walks with my Mama and her dog Jodi.

| This is Jodi, she is silly! |
We have been going on these daily walks for about a year now. Every day, rain or shine. For the most part that is. Our wonderful walks started one morning when I couldn't sleep. We had been planning my wedding and it got the best of me. So at 5am one Saturday morning... I asked my mom if she wanted to go for a walk. And the rest is history.
We have had our fair share of crazy morning walks. Jodi usually brings the crazy. She LOVES squirrels. When a squirrel comes into sight my poor Mom gets dragged along for the adventure. We have entertained quite a few people with the tricks my Mom has done while trying to keep Jodi under control. She is a strong dog! But Mom usually wins :)
Our walks are for about an hour and just under 4 miles. Everyday. We get to walk through Old Town Orange {adorable lil houses with white picket fences} I just love our route, wish I had a picture to share!
Along with the crazy comes beautiful sunrises, long talks and Starbucks. Did I mention we go to Starbucks every morning too? Oops forgot that part huh :) So, along with our oh so healthy walking, we get a reward of Starbucks to keep us going. We love coffee.

| Seriously so yummy! |
These early morning walks have been something I have come to cherish. Not just for the coffee, but for the quality time I get to spend with my Mom. She is awesome. I can ask her anything and she seems to always have the answer. Since getting married people always ask how my Mom is doing without me living in her house but I always tell them that we get to walk every morning so I doubt she misses me :)
Walks are wonderful. Especially when they are with someone you love.

I'm so thankful she actually WANTS to get up at 6am every morning to walk with me :) I love you Mom! :)
Hi Tawyna: I want YOU for a daughter too! That was so neat and beautifully said. I can tell you really love your Mom and cherish the time you have with her. I guess that's the difference with boys. I'd love to get an e-mail like this from Josh. I'm proud of you. Your adopted mother. Theresa (In case you forgot)
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Theresa!! I love my Mom lots and I do cherish our time! Boys are silly. I hope you're having a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
