Go Outside and Play

 

Well, spring has sprung (almost) and it is time to dust off winter “and go outside and play.” Although fall happens to be my favorite season, I like spring too. Spring is the time of year where everything thaws out from the freezing winter temps and new life emerges.  Spring means we can start to peel off the multiple layers of clothing and feel the crisp air on our faces without getting frostbiteJ. Spring is the time of year where we can “go outside and play.”

I can remember being a child and Mama would say “eat your breakfast first then you can go outside and play.” It wasn't until later in my adult life that I truly began to appreciate the time to “go outside and play.”  (Do you notice a theme hereJ?)  So my challenge to you, find something that you enjoy…outside.  Do you need ideas? Well, you can join Sisters Together for a walk/run around the canal; go volunteer at Mary's Wellness and Community Garden;  join Rhonda and Zeus at the dog park;  join a softball or kickball team;  or train for a 5k (Yay Rhonda!!) Whatever you decide, just channel your inner child and  “go outside and play!”

Peace & Love,
