So this is how it started:

In the last year I have become more aware of what green is. I am a mother of three, two sons 6 &13 and an 11 year old daughter. About six months ago my two older children and I were watching a show about being green. My 11 year old turned to me and asked what means, so I went on to tell them what little I know about being green. I really did not know that much.

At that moment I decided we were going to start living green. I also decided that I was going to show my family that does not mean expensive. So we started with what we know to do, cans and bottles. My husband set up two trash cans for cans and bottles and with that we took our first baby step to being greener.

Even writing all of that I know what most of you are thinking, how cute cans and bottles. I totally agree I am here to say we are the average American family, my friends are the average American friends. We do not have any idea on what it really means to be style=""> So I am going on the adventure to learn how to be green, and what green products are. I am also going to be taking a long some of my friends and family; however they don know it yet.

Welcome to the adventure! Cans and bottles might seem like baby steps, but just by deciding to think about the big picture, you're already leaps and bounds ahead of most folks. (When I try to explain my lifestyle to my family, I still get lots of "Oh, is recycling actually important?" >.< ) Just keep taking those baby steps and you'll be the queen of green before you know it. :)
