Benny and his buddy have been building a fort in the woods by school and playing in it after school. I love that he is spending this time in nature. It reminds me of a great book that I read called, Last Child in the Woods. It's about how important it is for children to spend time in nature learning to appreciate nature. Otherwise, there will be no one left to care about and to care for our precious earth. I have not always been the best example of spending time outdoors, but I've gotten a lot better the last few years, especially since we moved to the farm. I hope my own kids will continue to enjoy and appreciate nature and choose to spend their happiest times there.
