A Walk in the Woods


Dear Mother Nature,

On Sunday we took a surprise trip to the Woods. There a beautiful wooded park close to where we live and yet we have never explored it. We had a few hours to spare because we were having an open house. We found a trail and we began to walk along the stream. We found many things in the woods. We found different colored leaves, we found a stream, we found a tree that had been struck by lightening, we found honeysuckle, we found little eggs on the back of a leaf, and we found wild strawberries. But most of all, I found why I fell in love you. I loved watching you talk to the kids and show them how to eat a honeysuckle. I loved how cute you were while trying to walk in heels, so I had to go barefoot and give you my sandals. I love you because of your fun and creative side as you made wild bird noises. You really are my best friend and I love walking in the woods with you.
