On the first day of Ramadan we went down by the Bow River, ran through a maze, and picked flowers - among other things. It was one of the best days that I spent outside with my young children.
The second day, we went for a bus ride- which is awesome by the way. The kids would rather take the bus than drive in the car. I'm likely to oblige in the warm weather.
Then we went to the library, where big boy played and Z slept.
And me, how am I doing? Well so far so good...3 days in.
I do not follow my desires first. I try to listen to the children aka I would rather rest after work than walk and run around outside for hours. I take that walk anyway.
Food does not rule me, therefore I have a lot of energy aka I eat the right things (little salt, almost no sugar, no caffeine etc) at iftar and suhoor and I drink a lot of water = I feel strong enough to play with my kids in the evenings, that's it!
