Subject: RE: 100 Days of Ghoulie power, Part IIGhoulies, I have an announcement to make. I have the secret to combating childhood, and adulthood obesity... pay attention to your kids, and spend time with them. That's it. It's that simple. Yesterday it was my idea to go to the lake. The kids were a little hesitant at first, but they went, and they did have a good time, we would have been there longer if they had a say in it. It is a beautiful day in PA. A few clouds, a nice breeze, and it's only 78. After I was done working, I WFH today, I asked the kids if they wanted to go to the park and they said yes. For an hour and a half we played softball. My daughter batted, she worked on pitching, we were all moving the whole time. We took a break and the three of us did some running/football drills to help Caleb get ready for football. For 20 minutes we all WORKED HARD. My legs were burning, Caleb said his were too. Then they wanted to go back and hit some more softballs, so we did. We spent over 2 hours at the park because THEY wanted to play. So get off the couch, get your kids off of the computers and video games, and go play! This has been a public service announcement. |
