Sometimes it's easy to open the door and step outside. Despite the beautiful weather, today it felt hard and like I had a million reasons not to. "I am tired. It might get too hot. I want to watch tv. I need to tidy the house. I want to read and relax. The washing needs to be done. The baby might get sun burned..." But once we did step out, we didn't come back in till late. Somehow I managed to get most of the things on that list done too - and toddler didn't get burned. Instead, he got wet and dry, and wet then dry. He ate dirt, threw sticks, ventured through the bushes, threw apricot pips, and poked a bug. All within five metres of his bedroom. We got some dirty 30s ticked off including one of my favourites - cook and eat dinner outside. Yum!
