Spring is such a great time to get outside, enjoy the fresh air and warmer weather, and what better way to connect with nature than by helping take care of it.

 

It was very special to take part in a river cleanup with the Girl Scouts of America alongside my mom and my daughter. Having three generations of my family there together made the experience even more meaningful. Moments like this are a reminder of how important it is to show up, do our small part, and pass those values from one generation to the next. It was a simple but meaningful reminder that every effort counts, and every effort adds up.

 

As Earth Day approaches, it was a nice way to pause and think about the importance of protecting the planet for the next generation. It also reminds me that there are so many simple ways we can keep that going year-round with our families and children through time outside, small acts of care, and everyday moments that help build a lasting connection to nature.
