š¾ WHIPPET WISDOM WEDNESDAY LATE EDITION ā THE CAMPING SAGA š¾
Hello, Daisy here.
Apparently, we went camping to āget away from it all and relax.ā
This involved packing half the house into the car, sleeping under a sheet of material and walking absolutely everywhere.
Dad looked increasingly tired as the days went on. Mum kept saying, āIsnāt this relaxing?ā while Dad nodded in the way humans do when they know there is only one correct answer.
I enjoyed the fresh air, the new smells and having my family together. Although I did miss the chickens a littleānot emotionally, obviously. I simply like knowing where they are and whether they have dropped anything edible.
Camping reminded me that life doesnāt need to be perfect to be good. Sometimes happiness is a walk together, food shared outside, laughter when things go wrong and waking up beside the people you love.
Jesus often stepped away from the noise to rest and pray. Perhaps we all need that occasionallyāa little less rushing, a little more noticing, and time to remember that God is with us wherever we pitch our tent.
Although next time, I vote for somewhere with proper beds.
Dad said hotter too!!
With love, a cold wet nose and slightly tired paws,
Daisy š¾
