So, day one of our blog site has been fun. We spent half the day talking about all of the fun topics we can discuss in future posts. I think Cy and Dune really learned what “writers block” means once they sat down to write. Writing one blog is hard when they have so much to say.
I do want to point out, there was only some minor edits to their post and it was hard to stop. Initially I was inclined to edit everything they wrote, but I feel that in time with this journey they will learn more about editing. The run on sentences were a killer, but I want them to have something to look back on and see how far they have come. I am sure I have mistakes as well; I always find one or two after I post. I just need to let the boys be the creative beings they are, and support them as they find themselves in this crazy world.
This week we are starting a 21 day challenge, starting simple. Cy will be cutting out sodas I will be cutting out Starbucks (yikes!). Dune will try to sabotage us. The loser of the challenge will be recorded singing a Disney song (winner’s choice) and posted on the blog. Mind you, none of us are great singers.
With the challenge, we are going to document the benefits of drinking lemon water. We have read of all of the great benefits, both Cy and I are curious if we cut out the sugars and have lemon water every morning for 21 days will there be noticeable changes? Stay tuned for Cy’s hypothesis and scientific evidence he will document.
We are really excited to start this family quest, and I want to thank all of you that are reading so far. We do want to encourage suggestions for future topics as this will help me keep them motivated and committed. Please leave comments, and if you have not done so already like our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter.
