One of the best modes of transportation in my opinion is walking. I love to walk to places I need to go. With all the cars on the road today, it is a lovely break to be able to walk. I walked to the bank today, which seemed like a long walk of about 10 blocks one way, but I enjoyed it. My 3 year old and I walked along and saw a baby bird learning to fly, which we would have missed had we been racing by in our car. My son found a grassy knoll to run up and down numerous times which gave him a total thrill and I was able to relish in his pleasure as well.
As we walked along, my toddler's legs became tired and he decided to hop in the stroller which I had been pushing empty all along. We made it to our destination and performed our bank transaction and headed back home. The sun was setting and there was a cool breeze in the air. As I proceeded home at a quick pace, I noticed my son was no longer moving about, as he had fallen fast asleep. Apparently, the walk, with it's joyous adventures and cool evening air had tired him out. This was the easiest he had fallen asleep in many nights. Ah, the joy of naturally living and living in the moment! What a wonderful way to end the day!
