I was inspired by two blogs this week! My cute friend Emily from BYU-Idaho posted this quote on her blog:
While blog browsing, I came across the 21 day challenge by Rhonna Designs. So each day for the next 21 days I am going to be blogging about my new goal!
Get outside and get moving with my children!
My family is suffering from too much screen time still. I am also training for a 4 mile run on Thanksgiving Day with my family so why not take care of two goals at once? At first I considered making less screen time my goal, but I decided to focus on getting outside instead. I recall from my C.S. Lewis class in college that in order to rid ourselves of certain vices we have to first replace them with something else worthwhile. I hope that as we get outside, exercise, and enjoy nature – we will more naturally have less screen/electronic time.
So today I am
ENVISIONING
where I want to be in 21 days. I see myself ….
healthier
happier
more full of joy and life
I see my children with cheeks rosy from exercise
eyes full of wonder at the world around them.
And I also see myself crossing the finish line of the 4 mile race!
And I don’t think that I am going to have to ask this one twice to join me outside! She LOVED spending every day on the beach, in the Redwood Forest, etc. while we were on our California vacation. In this picture she is holding an adorable fluffy little caterpillar.
