Trying to Get More Exercise

Published by homeschooling under General Edit This

Some of the families from our homeschool group went for a hike this week. The hike was supposedly and not too hard one but I honestly thought I would DIE. I thought it would be like a 45 minutes walk but it was closer to two hours of climbing. I brought one small bottle of water for the whole family. Daughter #2 actually poured the water on head at one point! I cannot believe how out of shape I am. It may have been a tougher than usual hike because even one of my daughters complained about a quarter of the way through that she was tired. It was also the first “hot” day of the year so maybe we just weren’t used to it- at any rate we made it. I am determined to keep it up and try and go every week. I was surprised my kids were not that thrilled- usually they are the first ones to suggest we go for walks and get out of the house. I do notice older one are wanting to be around me less and less.. sort of sad.
