a guided tour
This week I was invited to go on Josh and Ivo's usual Saturday morning nature walk. It's at a wildlife refuge near our house, and since I usually use that time to catch up with chores it had been quite a while since I last visited. Ivo had so much he wanted to show me. HIghlights of the tour included the *exact* location where a garter snake had been last week, a small group of coots floating peacefully with their little white bills, and most exciting, a lightening-charred tree. Amazing!
That last picture is great. Happy Mother's Day!

You guys look so cute together! What a wonderful thing it is to experience nature through your child's eyes. A perfect Mother's Day outing.

I love the final picture in your post---a little boy and his Mom on the long road of life. Sounds like a fun adventure!
Happy Mother's Day!
Love, Hugs, and Nature Discovery Kisses for my Ivo~

What a great tradition Ivo has with his dad. I'm glad you got to come along this time- those pictures are great! I like the last one too, but my favorite is the middle one- I'm thinking that could be your new "About" photo. :o) I love the new header, BTW~
Happy Mother's Day!

I also love the final picture. But I also like the one of him sticking his tongue out *lol*

What great pictures. If I had that anywhere close to me, I don't think I'd ever get my chores done... :) Maybe that's why my house is cleaner in the summer since it is too hot to do much outdoors in our desert heat.
