SAVOR EVERY SECOND
THE TRUE MEANING OF FAMILY
My family is my world; their presence has provided stability and encouragement, enabling me to pursue my dreams confidently. Whether working long hours to provide for their needs or putting myself last to give them the life they deserve, my dedication to my family is endless. As we dive into May, we acknowledge International Day of Families; however, this observance should be celebrated daily.
Coming home to my family after a long day at work is my endless source of joy and peace. Amid the chaos of daily life, witnessing their comfort in our home brings tranquility. It is a testament that shows just how beautiful their energy is. As the pace of life continues to accelerate, I am reminded to pause and savor these precious moments because, unfortunately, I know they are fleeting. There is something so bittersweet about being present in a moment in time and knowing that one day you will miss it.
fully immersed ourselves in the beauty of nature. Greeted with breathtaking sights, I feel lucky I could show my children the spectacular sights of mountain life. My children are little, so their favorite things to see are the bustling streets of theme parks. My kids love animals, which makes Busch Gardens their favorite theme park; while walking the streets, we explored all of the exciting animal exhibits. Visiting these fun-filled parks is never dull, as we always laugh together. Through these adventures, we bond as a family, forging connections that will be treasured for years. Every day, I am reminded of the essence of time. I realize how fragile life is and the importance of cherishing each moment with loved ones. Health and family are the true pillars of happiness, constantly reminding us to live each day to the fullest and embrace the blessings that surround us. Ultimately, family’s love and support genuinely define life’s richness, immersing each day with meaning and purpose.
As a parent of three children ages 5, 8, and 10, I am continually reminded of the profound meaning of family, characterized

PLANT A LEGACY OAK TO HONOR
Trees symbolize strength and resilience in nature with their majestic presence and enduring beauty. From their towering height to shady canopies, each tree is a testament to the passage of time, withstanding decades and even centuries. All trees are unique, but the oak should be highlighted. The sight of an oak tree evokes a sense of awe and grace. Oak trees sustain a rich ecosystem and provide habitats for many different species. The oak tree’s lifecycle is an example of its divine beauty and resilience.
Over the course of some 56 million years, oaks have evolved into about 435 species found on five continents. Oaks are foundational to forests across
the Northern Hemisphere. They foster diversity, from fungi to wasps, birds to mammals. They help clean the air, sequestering carbon dioxide and absorbing atmospheric pollutants. According to the Tallahassee Democrat, “There are many reasons we plant trees: provide shade, add beauty to the landscape, produce timber for our houses and furniture, give food for wildlife, and improve the environment.” However, another reason is to leave a legacy. Planting a tree can honor a person and commemorate an event. Oak trees symbolize strength and longevity and make an ideal
LEARNING THE ROPES THE ONES YOU LOVE GAVIN’S GUIDE
Hi everyone, it’s Gavin here! I have been super excited and happy lately because my dad has taught me so much about his job and what he does every day. I love learning about what he does and how he is so good at it. My sisters and I have been very busy working with tools, caring for things, and helping around the farm. I am starting to enjoy it all so much.
Dad has taught me a lot of helpful tips and tricks on how to take care of the property. One day, I hope to be just like him. I hope to take over everything he does someday. As my dad teaches me the ropes and everything I need to know, I am shocked at how well he runs his business. I have been driving the utility vehicles around the property since I was 8, and I play pretend like it’s my go-kart! I have so much fun driving around in the sun. I can’t wait to have a car someday, even though my dad does not want me to drive anytime soon!
I have also learned how to drive the trailers and care for the plants all over the property. I love that my dad is teaching me so much. He says I can gain responsibility so that one day I can be the best dad to my future kids. I love helping out and making sure everything is done just right to make my dad and the rest of our family proud. My family means the world to me! We all have so much fun together — playing games, going on adventures, or spending time together. I know that when I have my own family someday, I want it to be just like ours! I want to make them laugh, care for them, and make memories like we do. Family is the best thing in the world!
