Walk to School Day


Ella walked to school with the neighbor girl and by sheer coincidence I was working in town and was able to walk with the other three kids on walk to school day.  We parked about half way between the middle school and elementary school and the car was barely stopped before Sophia was fifteen feet ahead and ignoring me the way only a middle schooler can.  She headed right and we headed left.  Merrick and Grace and I giggled and chatted in the crisp morning sun and I didn't embarass them until we were on the school grounds and with the music bumping I started a little dance move.  It wasn't a stanky leg or nae nae just a good old fanshioned rump shaker.  They quickly told me to stop.  We walked all of three blocks but our arrival was similiar to the end of a marathon.  Loud music, banannas, granola bars and even bottled water.  It was wonderful and over the top all at the same time.
