Hiking



C.O. and I went for a hike this evening. The sun was shining and the wind was minimal so we decided to take advantage of the weather. We found a babysitter for Harold and drove out to the base of the mountain just north of town.

Every now and again it's good for the two of us to have a break from Harold. We can get back into our "couple rhythm" for a while. You know, actually finish our sentences, have an intelligent conversation and enjoy some silence. All things that are difficult with a 3 year old constantly asking questions, making requests or needing attention. Parenthood can be overwhelming like that at times. But up here we had a chance to just breathe, reconnect and recharge those patience batteries.
