November 23

We headed back to suburbia today, but before we hit the road, the boys and I opted for one more walk in the stillness of the Sierras.

Isaac and Brady ran ahead of Adam and me, so I watched those boys of mine as they strolled together. I could hear lilting laughter and occasional bits of conversation, but it was a joy to just observe them as they interacted out there in nature; how they walked side by side and then in a row along the yellow line. And then, finally, how they walked in mostly lockstep (which is hard because Isaac is so much taller right now) with their arms entwined in a sidearm hug.

It was a lovely way to put a bow on a lovely weekend, and I am thankful for that.
