I am loving so much how ready this littlest boy of mine is ready to be outside all of the time. He begs to go out at the door like a little puppy and knows that when the shoes are on, it is time. He is forming the critical bond with nature that I aspire to bring to my children, and am honored to witness as a mama.
I can just see all the joy in his heart as he makes connections and explores on his own. The textures, sounds, the warmth of the sun, the feel of mud, moss like carpet, walking on uneven ground in hard soled shoes, days full of newness and first experiences. It is a magical thing.
Oh and forest floors covered in ramps... one of springs finest wild edibles.

Tonight as I held him and stood rocking and shusshing him to sleep, we swayed over to a window and a robin began its evening call. He looked up and made the sign for 'birdie.'
Love seeing your little one hug a tree. That is just too beautiful
