Growing up on a farm I spent most of my days outside. It’s a part of who I am and now it’s a part of who my boys are. We spend majority of our day outdoors exploring anything and everything!

We spend hours in the creek behind the house flipping over rocks looking for anything we can find. I explain to them how everything in nature has a purpose and we are all part of one big plan.

We head to the farm and check calves and spend time playing in the dirt it in some cases in the fields where the pastures are a little more fertilized. I know that spending more time outside is not just good for them but good for me as well, being a single mama of two can be stressful and lonely.

Getting outside is so important. Did you know just 5 minutes a day can help reduce stress? So here we are outside dancing in the raining mist. I challenge everyone to get outside for just a short period of time today and everyday. Reflect on a stressful work week or maybe just enjoy some interrupted time with your family.

Did you get outside today?
