i took a parenting class a few weeks ago at explorer
{was the best hour and a half spent that week}.
one of the points that resonated with me was to
slow down and take time to connect with our kids.
like many busy moms,
i sometimes get stuck in autopilot,
and forget to stop and give the boys
{all of them} my undivided attention.
since taking the class,
i've made a conscious effort to really try do this and i've
noticed the difference it has made.
i took the time to listen to finn share his latest interest
and theories on colonizing mars, and since scout just started piano lessons and wanted an audience, i pulled up a chair as
he practiced and i just sat there and watched/listened.
he loved it and i did too.
life really is beautiful.
{i just need to remember to slow down and take it all in}
~ i'm looking forward to a date with c tonight!
