Today I want to tell you the story of two walks that I believe created lifetime memories.

Hi, I'm Dave. Welcome to Walking is Fitness. This is a daily podcast providing a little added motivation to help you get out and take the walk.

Today's 10 minute walk starts right after this.

When I left the house just a bit ago, the skies were clear, there was quite a bit of blue, not entirely blue, but more blue than clouds.

And probably within the last 10 minutes a bank of clouds has moved in

overtaken the blue and so we have gone from partly maybe even mostly sunny to

mostly cloudy except I don't think it's supposed to stay this way I

think it's actually supposed to be a decently sunny day so as I have mentioned

before a even I have six children we have four boys two girls and they are Christopher Grace

Noah Aaron boy with two A's Aaron Andrew and then Emma when Grace and Emma

when Grace and Emma got married,

Ava and I were honored to host the wedding, to host the reception.

Those were two incredibly wonderful events.

I loved each of their weddings, and they do too, more importantly. But before each one

got married, it was important to me to be able to say something more than her mother and I

about each of my daughters, young women that I love dearly.

And so I asked Grace first, she got married seven years before Emma, and I asked them,

would you mind if I said something before the dance at the reception? And they responded, of course, we would love that.

And I didn't want to, I don't want to go too long.

I didn't want to ramble.

I wanted to say something that was meaningful,

that was profound, and that moved each of my daughters emotionally, maybe even to the point of tears. I wanted to touch their hearts, is really what I wanted.
