i want my children to grow up barefoot running through the woods. I want them to know the feeling of the trees growing around them, to recognize the gurgle of a stream before they see it, to know the taste of a blackberry from a bush long before the taste of a chip. I want my children to experience the earth we came from through touch, not pictures, and video games. And I want to be right there with them through all of it. I want them to experience all that our Father has created, for them. To grow up knowing the earth beneath their feet. And the blue sky above them. To understand just how beautiful the world outside your window can be.
