So, how is the nature experiment going? It's hard to say, but there are some subtle things that I think are a result of making sure the computer is turned off (we don't even own a TV) and she gets plenty of time outside. She's an explorer, prefers to spend her time outside, notices animals before I do, eats her vegetables, and she's never sick. I guess she is a pretty normal kid for her age - inquisitive and happy and that's all I can ask for. I think my real challenge really begins this year: when she starts to gain independence and learn what a TV is, how do I keep her coming back to nature?
