Today was a beautiful Spring day! I decided to take a walk and sat down in the grass at the park. I cannot remember the last time I actually just enjoyed the moment in a park. A little girl and her mother walked by and she gave me the sweetest smile. Pure happiness on her face that made me happy.
Michael and I have been having a blast at bedtime with the kids. We chase them around and Michael pretends to be Frankenstein (or a bear or a shark) and I pretend to be a robot. It is hysterical b/c we also play hide-and-seek with the kids. They absolutely love it!!!! And they are often naked when they are running around. Seeing those happy faces and hearing their laughter and giggles is the best moment ever.
Being in the moment with the kids and Michael has been the greatest gift of my time off. Seeing them be so happy b/c I am playing with them and loving every second. I feel blessed for sure.
Then I read some articles about politics, bullying, war, gun control, etc. and I think to myself why can't we all find solutions to our challenges and make this a better world for our children. Life seemed so much easier and simpler when we were kids. No wonder parents are hovering all the time now. Lets bring faith, values and love back into the equation.
