This 8 1/2 x 11 layout tells the story of my daughter Sofi's first walk in the park. I tried to tear the patterned paper to make it look like a curving path.

Journaling reads:
Although you learned to walk a month before, this is the first time I let you loose at the park. Well, actually, you let yourself loose!

I had spread out a blanket on the dewy grass, planning to stretch out with a magazine while you played alongside me, but you had other ideas. Down the paved path, across the grass, towards the busy sidewalk you toddled. Sometimes you stumbled but you quickly picked yourself up without a cry or grumble. And much to my dismay you occasionally picked up fallen leaves, twigs and other unidentifiable objects from the ground. Passersby would stop and marvel at your cuteness. How could I have waited so long for this moment?

Now during our almost daily walks with your daddy, we often "let you loose." So you can stretch your legs, exercise your tiny body and roam free - at last.

Thanks for looking!
