The walking was a little later than usual today, both our morning and evening excursions. That meant that we were walking in the dark, and for some reason I decided it would be a good idea to take an entirely different route than we’ve gone before. Unfortunately, it really was an entirely different route than we’ve gone before – so I got completely lost (yes, in my own neighborhood. Where I’ve lived for more than a decade. Where my sister lived for more than a decade before that.*)

We finally came out on a mostly familiar, but unpleasantly dark & busy, road. I thought I knew where we were and turned right to go home. And ended up at the park…how’d I get on the other side of the park? Ok, at the park, well, guess we’ll just keep walkin’…right?

Thankfully, there is a house near the park that stands out. A house that has signs proclaiming their faith every day, to which they add a grand display to celebrate the various Holidays. Christmas finds their yard big, bold & bright – and instantly recognizable. I saw that giant cross, the enormous Nativity and the blazing star – and knew I was headed in exactly the wrong direction.

Once I had my bearings I was able to get us home fairly quickly, though it still ended up being about twice as long of a walk as I intended.

 

The boys today – so handsome 🙂
