A bike ride at sunset to go pick pine cones out of the park.
Which takes me back to the title of this post.
Acorn...a simple and easy word for most, but a word that would bring a tear to my eyes this night.
As we were looking for pine cones my son came across what looked to be an acorn and shouted ACORN proudly showing us.
This means more to me than most of you know, reasons I can't explain but it was a moment in time I will never forget.
We continued our hunt of pine cones and filled my bike basket and rode home just as dark set in.
As we wrapped up our perfectly perfect autumn evening we popped in the Moonrise Kingdom dvd.
A lovely family movie night in which my son was completely sucked into. I am sure it will be our new favorite movie to watch as we craft together.
All smiles tonight :)

Amy,
Your post spoke to me on several levels! How very sweet that you captured this moment for you and Brooklyn (he'll appreciate it when he's older!)
I'm so glad he caught you by surprise....never forget that they know so much more than we do.
It sounds like he's doing just great and he seems like such a happy little boy........good for you for being such a great mom!
Awe, you are going to make me cry, so sweet! I love seeing him on his bike, such a big boy now!
You are making memories and they are the best!
