365 Days of Gratitude - Day 247

Everyone needs a Richard in their lives!

His pace is easy and methodical, which is probably why he excels at rock climbing. He rushes into nothing and learned at a young age what made his spirit sing, and what didn't. He's not easily coerced into anything that doesn't align with him.

Today we did a little of this and a little of that. We wandered along the river's edge for a few hours, skipping stones (the boys are still giggling at my 'girlie throwing') and updating each other on our current endeavours. 

There's something magical about this boy. He moves through life with a quiet calm, confident in his choices but not boastful. No, never boastful, that's not his way. His lifestyle isn't for everyone and that matters not one little bit to him. It also matters not that he defend or explain his choices, he simply lives life his way with a quiet, calm contentment. 

Yes, a single day with our Richard and we are relaxed too. And incredibly proud.

Feeling grateful,
Louise
