{He thinks we're just walking}

 Mason and I have been going on walks every evening after supper. He brings his hockey stick and a ball and practices his stick-handling while we walk. He tells me all about hockey - what he's been working on, what he's looking forward to, his hopes, his dreams, his favorite players and why, all about the friends he has met through hockey, and so much more. I can't help but think about the song "Just Fishin" by Trace Adkins.

"He thinks we're just walking"

But to me, it's so much more than just walking. It's sweet and tender moments that I will grasp onto when he's older. It's precious memories engraved in my heart. It's moments of feeling so proud of who he is becoming. And it's moments of wanting the world for him. OH, my sweet boy! How I cherish these moments with you more than you'll ever know. 

Let's keep walking my boy!
