When Abel and I went for a walk today, I thought about how much I can’t wait to have our own yard. Sure there is grass around our condo building, but unfortunately some of the dog owners around here don’t pick up after their pups.
This isn’t a problem at Nana and Grampa’s though, where the yard wraps around the house and is a lovely place to sit on an unseasonably warm day in March.
Where Tata can help Abel fly and all can enjoy some beautiful fresh Vermont air.
Until we have this for ourselves, I’ll seek out the best opportunities I can for time outdoors with Abel here in NoVa. Walks around the neighborhood are great and there are several playgrounds, though mulch underfoot is not quite the same as green grass.
We’ll make the most of the outdoors we’ve got though, because being outdoors is one of those things I wish I did more of… one of those things I will do more of, for my own sake and for the sake of a little boy who will surely enjoy playtime in the sunshine more than TV and videogames.
One can hope so anyways.
