walking for a week
Yes I have been walking for a week now and I feel pretty good about it. As does Jack. He enjoys the ride and tonight when I said lets go insinuating bed, he went to the closet got his shoes and asked for his goat goat goat, you know his coat!!! I have a standard route and he seems to know the direction we are heading since he wants to "Go datta teway maarm peweeze?" Yes I know the writing is a mess but that is his dialect and at this point any dialect of Jackanese is a good one.
I had to laugh tonight since we left a little later than usual we ran into different people on the dike. runners and couples and after work crowd. Jack and I are usually the 12 noon group with the old people and young moms. Jack is such a friendly child he says hello to people when they are blocks away and continues to wave and talk to them as they approach and begins conversations with them as they are jogging or bicycling by. He then says goodbye and waves and see ya ladders. Then goes tot he next person which continues with any bird, plane, helicopter or big interesting truck going by. I found a few leaves and bark, and rocks and anything on the path that may interest him during the trek. He will usually ooh and ahh over it smell it, try to break it and then chuck it over the side of the carriage to report UHOH immediately afterwards.
If I continue to walk on every possible day for the next month I will reward the boy and I with a three wheel carriage that goes through a little more rugged terrrain since the mud and rocks can be a bit hairy and slow us down quite a bit. There are areas of the cemetary that we dont walk since I cant get through there and who knows maybe I would venture further without such a heavy carriage. Maybe.
Allie is out tonight with her girlfriends, Missi is home on the computer working on some artwork. Jack is finally asleep and I am here tapping away since my Hubby is away for the weekend. I do enjoy the time I get alone but I do miss him at night when it is chilly and I need a big snuggler. He will be home sunday then away for a half weeka gain then home for the holiday.
