THE DIARY GAME Steemit Philippines Community Contest Week 2 - BONDING TIME WITH THE KIDS 04/29/2021
Hello everyone this will be my second entry for the Diary Game for week 2, I should have submitted one post per day but my time won’t really allow me. But at least in a week's time, I am able to submit two hopefully I could maintain that.

So today I am glad we were able to have a quality bonding time with my family although it’s not with my whole family because two of my 5 children failed to come with us. You know kids these days when they grow older they prefer to stay home or be with peers than going out with family.
So it was around 5 in the morning when we prepared to go to a place wherein we could have some walk or go biking. It is actually a construction site of a new bridge linking two municipalities of Cagayan de Oro and it is just adjacent to our abode.
People used this place as their destination when they want to have a morning or afternoon exercise. As for us, we like to go there by bike or walk and we had done it many times already.
There are times wherein only I and my 4rth child will go there biking and sometimes it would be me and my wife and when we go there without the kids we used to walk back and forth.
And this time I’m so glad 3 of my kids were with us so it’s like a family bonding. Although I know a little exercise will really be of help for me to lose weight and be physically fit, that is why I am doing my best to go there once in a while.
Having said that I just would like to add that exercise is very important for us to be able to control our weight and reduce the risk of heart disease, I know this is not only for those who are in their prime time but even people at their 20's and 30's must also do some exercise regularly.
And for those who want to stop or quit smoking exercise is also important.
Ans as to the benefits of spending time together with family, it improves mental health and boosts self-confidence, it also helps kids learn future parenting skills and a lot more.
I know there are still a lot of benefits in family bonding or spending time together, perhaps I would blog about it some other time.
So that’s all for my story today, it was indeed a very wonderful time with my wife and kids, and will surely do it again soon.
Keep safe everyone and God bless!
