take a walk every morning

I’m walking the kids to school every morning. I had in mind something more solo and meditative. The current walk involves lots of bickering chatter: “Hurry up, put that down, it’s trash, don’t hit your sister, watch out, here comes a car, let’s cross now…. etc.” Yet, I still feel a mild sense of accomplishment every time we complete the short journey, but not for my initially intended physical benefits.
