Let them play outside

I just went to call the kids in for bed time. I looked out the window and saw them happily digging in the dirt and swinging on the tree swing in the back yard. When I see how happy and free they are playing outside, my heart fills with joy. I guess I feel that by letting them play, I am giving them the best gift I have to offer.  Some of the best memories from my childhood are of climbing trees, bike riding and mud pies. My wish for them is that they never forget the joy of playing outside no matter what their age. Ok.....I better go call them in.
