A recent house move has officially unlocked a whole new world of adventure for us, and I am absolutely buzzing with the energy of it all. This week marks such a special milestone as the kids start at their new school, and I am already picturing our walks home together. We aren’t just heading back to the house; we’re embarking on a daily expedition to discover every hidden gem in our new neighborhood.
I’ve already told the kids that our journey home is going to be a treasure hunt where we celebrate all our “firsts.” We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for the first bird singing in the trees, the first tiny insect busy in the hedges, or even that first “perfect” puddle that’s just begging for a happy splash.
There is something so incredibly refreshing about trading the old, familiar routes for pavements we’ve never stepped on before. It is a beautiful reminder that no matter how many miles we’ve put behind us, life always has a fresh, sun-drenched turn waiting just around the corner if we are open to it.
I’m leaning into this season of discovery with a huge smile, and I hope you feel that same spark of curiosity in your own week. May you experience the pure, unadulterated joy of “firsts”—spot the bird, find the puddle, and remember that the best adventures are the ones that start right under your feet. 👣
Mindful Miles
