Balance is so difficult. How do we do it? Better yet, how do we teach our kids so they're prepared for what life will throw at them? We began a year ago trying to simplify our lives. We started a lifestyle change, partially inspired by having two mortgages, but one that we hope will teach our kids to find balance, and learn a little bit about the earth in the process. I enjoy being busy, thrive on it. But I want to capture for my kids a combination of the care-freeness Brian and I had as kids combined with learning how to rely better on ourselves. It has been and will be a great deal of work, but it's a journey that we're committed to. This is another area where we must learn balance. I'm impatient, I get an idea, research it, and implement the necessary steps for completion. I must find balance in that, the journey. As Brian says is a marathon, not a sprint. I began the thought of this blog as a way to chronicle our gardening adventures this year, maybe it will evolve into something else.
