Just Three Words

MY NEW(ish) RIDE!

As we were driving home from church a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that someone had put some items near the curb, one of them being a stroller and another a soft play gym.  I asked Nick to please pull into the driveway so I could see what was up.  It didn't take me long to realize that the stroller was unlike any I'd ever laid eyes on...It had 4 seats!  The woman of the home met me at the curb and explained how she used to run an in-home day care but that her family had fallen on hard times because her husband has been hospitalized since last August from complications with a brain tumor.  She was unloading some items to make some extra money because she was eating most of her meal out at restaurants near to Vanderbilt Medical Center.  After a quick chat with my hubs, we decided to expand our stroller collection yet again!

The girls helped me clean it up, and today was the first day that the weather has been warm enough to venture outside for a walk...And it went swimmingly!  It was WONDERFUL to be able to walk at my own pace (rather than chasing a child or dealing with a whiny slow poke!)  I have a feeling this is going to be my ticket to some outdoor exercise!  HALLEJUAH!!!!
