I try to take a walk everyday. Somedays though, I just don’t want to go out in the heat. I can’t wait for cooler weather!

Jackson loves being outside. He watches the trees and houses from his Bugaboo as we navigate through our little community. The bumps and jiggles of the sidewalk can calm him down instantly. When the pavilion is empty we park the stroller and sit on the couch. There is always a nice cool breeze and Jackson licks the air. We sit and he soaks it all in or I rock him to sleep if he is fussy. There is a bench we always sit at, it is in front of a huge tree. Jackson stares at the branches and leaves.

For me, it is nice to get out of the house. I listen to music or a podcast in one ear and watch Jackson looking around. When we are having a difficult day a walk helps clear my head and gives Jackson something new to look at.
