    I have to express gratitude for a big and beautiful moon this morning on my way to work!

    My 5th grade daughter who super loves long showers has now begun to use a timer in the shower without my even asking and has adopted my practice of waterless teeth brushing. She is also suggesting other changes that she thinks we should make in our daily rituals to be better environmentalist;-)

    Lots of time outside today practicing gratitude for the leaves in my yard and for my plants who have made it through winter and for extra daylight hours!

    I tried a 4 minute shower this morning. Not sure I got all the soap off, but otherwise it was a success!

    Pausing and taking a purposeful break from routines in order to spend focused time observing, appreciating, and being fully in nature has made each day significantly richer.

    My ten year old daughter is cheering me on and doing some challenges with me, including the 5 minute shower and the mostly waterless tootbrushing:-)
