A photo on the lake

I’ve felt so close to Mom lately. It can be anything, a small moment that makes me so happy and close to her. We’ve cuddled. We’ve walked. Taken pictures. Even talked. (Hey that rhymed.) Any moment with Mom is a highlight. Today was really fun too. I got home from school, and we talked while she ate a late lunch. Then she asked me if I wanted to go on a walk with her. Of course, I said yes. After spending forever looking for Soki’s dog coat, we left into the cold winter air. We took the secret trail there, and then walked down to the frozen lake. I ran around for a bit, and then we took Soki’s leash off. She was really cold, but energetic as always. I ran, and she followed.
