What do you do with your time?

Friends frequently ask us how we do so much on the farm.  I usually answer, it’s just what we do.  Everyone makes choices in life on how to spend your time.  We don’t watch sports.  We don’t watch much tv – in fact I think most shows glorify behaviors we are opposed to.  We don’t go on big vacations to resorts.

We do go outside every day.  So do the kids.  We teach our family about responsibility through chores.  If the kids want to watch tv or play a video game, they usually have to work for the reward.  Our kids understand where the chicken on their plate came from, they know rabbits in the cages, while fun to play with, will eventually be dinner.  It doesn’t traumatize them; it educates them.

Don’t get me wrong, I fully support everyone’s choice to live their own lives. In fact, if everyone had farms, we wouldn’t have customers. I’m just explaining our choice.

Don’t ask how we do so much.  Look at what you could have done instead.
