Thankful AJ got me outside this past Sunday morning. I wanted to stay cozy inside the house, but he wanted to go out and ride his bike. I step outside and it's warm and sunny... flowers a bloom, peaceful stillness, and the animals singing. My beautiful boy takes his bike out for the first time since a long winter. Within minutes of being outside, I am connected on a higher level and enjoying a serene moment.
He walks it down the slightest hills with caution and has trouble with the regular peddling.
After a few minutes, he's speeding along just fine. He pauses to pick a dandelion puff and make a wish.
He's stopped on a hill and its tougher to get started now than it would have been just to keep keepin' on... is he now stuck?
He
gets off the bike and walks it up the hill; slowly but surely he climbs beyond the challenge.
How I treasure this beautiful boy and the amazing truth found in these simple moments.
Like no other, he can make my heart sing with ecstasy.
