Dear Reader,
I am clinging on to each warm second of this gorgeous “second fall” weather we like to experience yearly around here. we get that super cold spell, and then all of the sudden, the weather gives us one last happy bright spot (I don’t hate winter, what do you mean? shiver, shiver).
It was so beautiful outside today, we just had to go out and play! The fall leaves are in that perfectly satisfying crunchy state so I took my preschooler out while my littles were napping (don’t worry, baby monitor in hand) and we stomped and crumbled and celebrated the joy of fall together. It was so fun to just let go of all the stress of the world right now and just let my inner kid out. I mean, really, who doesn’t like crunching leaves? There is something so satisfying about it. Maybe it’s the sensory aspect. Maybe it’s just the sunshine and fresh air (it’s so much more than that). Heck, maybe it’s just some leftover primal instinct.
No matter why it just feels so good, it was definitely cathartic and I am so grateful for the excuse to track these memories with my girly in her childhood.
