Happy New Year everyone!

I am so happy to ring in the new year with a new post sharing my newest friend, Willow. That’s a whole lot of new.

I have known Candice and Nick for many years now. However, this was my first time meeting Miss Willow outside of her mommy’s tummy.

Willow showed me she has eyes that want to see every bit of the world around her. Sandy Ridge Reservation in North Ridgeville had plenty of sites to offer her.

We explored snowy landscapes, marshes and the bridge. All while getting lots of “weeee” time. Candice and Nick’s arms had to of been sore the next day.

The weather was chilly but Willow’s smile was warm. Every smile lit my heart up.

I want to take a lesson with me from Miss Willow in the new year. I want to learn to take everything in because time passes by so fast.

Before you know it, your friends are engaged, getting married and starting a family. And we all grow old so fast.

2021 is a time to cherish more. 2021 is a time to smile. 2021 is a chance for new beginnings and to see everything with new eyes. Just like Willow.
