Here’s How I’m Keeping Things in Perspective
So I KNOW What’s Important

Building Memories and Experiences.


We all work hard to create a world of meaningful experiences for ourselves and for our families. I find that getting out in nature and learning about animals is an important balance to my work life and it’s also very gratifying to share it with my girls.

Recently, my nephew found some abandoned duck eggs and asked if we could hatch them.  He brought them over and I added them to the incubator with our chicken eggs.  I loved seeing the surprise in my daughter Rachael’s face when they hatched.  And now they are becoming ducklings and providing a whole new learning experience for both of my girls.

It's a Duck, Daddy!

It’s also blueberry season here in Florida.  As part of my special time with just my daughter, Abby, we went to the local You-Pick-Blueberries farm nearby and picked blueberries together.  I believe it’s important that we all know where our food comes from and what it takes to bring it to our tables.  Abby and I had a great time together – and the whole family enjoyed the “fruits” of our labor.

Experiences that are meaningful don’t require lots of money or fireworks and dancing bears.  It’s the time we make to share with others that is truly a measure of our success.

Creating a balance between our work lives and relaxed time is vital; I think that’s one of the great lessons we’ve learned over the last year.
