it’s important for me to get out. get out with Jen. get out with Aisha. get out as a family and just enjoy life. i feel we all get caught up with work sometimes. we spend too much time on Twitter, on Facebook on Chat, having digital relationships with digital friends, instead of experiencing a true human connection. a connection with loved ones. with family. we need to enjoy the company of those closest to us more. we need to make more time for family. i needed this outing for myself. for my family. for my girls. with another one on the way in less then three months, it will be more important then ever to make that time to be together. to slow down the race of life and enjoy my family. take the time because no one ever says, i’d wish I’d spent more time at the office.
