Travel Near and Far




Certainly, travel is more than seeing of the sights, it is a change that goes on,
deep and permanent, in the ideas of living
- Miriam Beard

 
 
From our family vacation.....to the capital of our great country....this was a lesson in history, philosophy and living.  Time together as a family, just us, no dishes to wash, home repairs to complete, laundry to do, birthday parties to attend.  I love this time when there is no distractions from connecting with each other.  I feel so grateful for this time to just be with each other, learning and loving together.

I also love exploring a new place, the history, how our world is so big and small, different yet so very familiar.  I loved walking hand in hand with my darlings taking it all in, learning about how and why, when and where.  Learning with them, and at times, being the teacher.  These memories will hopefully carry me through the next transition - back to school - ahhhh! 

Here is to travelling near and far with those you love the most....
