We all went out for a walk the other day. Yes I managed to drag two teenagers out for an afternoon out. It was lovely to spend some time together in between the huffs and puffs, and classic teenage grunts. They were a bit reluctant because I had prized them away from their gadgets and favourite things to spend time with mum. 'The fresh air will do you good' I said, they look at me as if to say they would rather suck vintage mouldy pickled eggs.
I think they secretly enjoyed it, I know I'm loved as they tell me every day. It is hard though to organise days out in the school holidays especially at this age as they like to do their own thing now and I totally understand. When they were little I could just scoop them up, pop them in the car and take them everywhere. The thing is that now I suppose I can just take myself off and have a bit of independence but I like my time with my boys. My eldest will go as he loves have a walk but I don't believe in making them do anything they don't want to, I was going my own way at their age but you forget don't you? This gave me my inspiration for my verse today, I hope you enjoy it.......... Walk with Me Walk with me boys just now and again Before you become older turn into young men Walk with me lads it's not really a chore The locations I choose though maybe a bore Walk with me chaps it's good for us you know Before my knees give in and I'm living in a bungalow Walk with me my son's it's time I enjoy Time is so precious no need to be coy Walk with me guys for soon you'll fly the nest I can then stop annoying you yes, finally a rest Walk with me now as you make me so proud One of you so quiet the other one SO LOUD Walk with me you two as memories are made These moments remembered life's footprints are laid Family can mean good friends and lovers too. So enjoy your family time in which ever way you spend it. Make the most of it as family time is precious time. Thanks for reading, join me tomorrow for Free from Friday. Take care for now......
