Exercising Tayja

Keeping a kid mentally healthy takes more that just doing a few math problems a day. One thing that we have always done with Tayja is make sure she gets a lot of physical exercise everyday.

Today she and I kicked the soccer ball in a foot of snow. I kicked the ball past her so she had to run through the snow as often as I could. I figured running after the ball in her snow pants, boots and heavy jacket would wear her out. I was wrong. She still had energy for swinging, sliding and climbing.
