Taste That Good Air!

I took the girls on a bike ride this morning.   As we were riding Maggie said, "Mom, take a big gulp and taste that good air!"  So I did.  And do you know what- that air was good!  And even though that gulp of air was hot and humid, there was a freshness about it too.  That gulp tasted flowery and green and alive!  I am thankful that my four year old recognized something beautiful and good today.  And I am thankful for the beautiful place that I live.  And... I am thankful for the thousands of gulps of air I got on my bike ride this morning as I dragged my two girls in the bike trailer up and down some of the hills of Indiana.

Good think Maggie is there while you are getting your exercise to remind you to breathe!!! I always love that part when I am exercising...someone telling me "Don't forget to breathe." Now it will remind me of Maggie & have a different meaning :)
