B is for Bicycle


One thousand, one hundred four and eight tenths. The number of miles that these gears have been pedaled since early November. In just a few minutes, I'll add another 15. I've come quite far since this date last year. Life has changed in so many wonderful ways. Today marks one year since we first saw Lily. Julianne wrote about it yesterday. I have much to reflect on and give praise for as I ride this morning.

I love your photo and I don't even know how to ride a bike. I hope you enjoyed your ride today!!

Mmm, I like this one! As you've probably guessed, I'm a sucker for macro and up-close shots!

Congrats on your acheivements in the last year, too! God is good!

p.s. Lily is adorable -- in about two months I'll be moving in with a friend and her husband who have a 4-year-old daughter named XiXi who they adopted from China as well. They're in the middle of paperwork for #2... exciting!

I so relate to this, Robert. Winter finally eased its icy grip on our part of the world, and I've been biking for a couple of weeks. It feels so good, so freeing to finally be on the road under my own power.

What a thrill to cross paths with like-minded folks. May your travels continue to be safe and enjoyable. This picture absolutely rocks.
