Nice comment! LOL!I did almos...Leave it to Mikey! Nice comment! LOL!<BR/><BR/>I did almost the exact same thing last night...Just finished off dinner and wanted to clean up. That is the one thing I like to clean up everyday...MY kitchen. Right away the kids wanted to go outside. There is no way I could say no. I kept looking around the house, dirty socks scattered about, crumbs underneath the table, messy counters, etc. Such a sty sometimes I can't stand it and want a maid! Whose got the money for that though? <BR/><BR/>So we went in the back and princess is enthralled by her swing these says so she immediately ran to it repeating the words, "I wanna schwing." Just slightly lifting her heals off the groud as to say pick me up now! My son was running around wildly just having a ball without a care in the world. Hubby was cutting the grass in the front and the smell of freshly cut grass was all around. I took a deep breath just as the wind was blowing and just like you mentioned Clew, all of my thoughts of cleaning disappeared and just brought me back to reality. The important thing at that moment was my kids and spending quality time with them that they so desperately crave and that I needed without even know it. <BR/><BR/>We all need moments like this in our lives to remind us once in awhile that the most important things in our lives are the people in it, not the material/other things. We've got to remember to "stop and smell the roses" every day, not just once in awhile.Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06534420799222985914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-1146844117813899982006-05-05T11:48:00.000-04:002006-05-05T11:48:00.000-04:00I also have been very preoccupied with life's busy...I also have been very preoccupied with life's busyness and have been neglecting playtime with my son. <BR/><BR/>I need to do as you did last night more often.<BR/><BR/>"His laughter released a swarm of butterflies in my heart" you have a lovely way of putting things....you are right tho, my sons laughter does the same thing to me! :)chesneygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277804935625220924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-1146838676782392402006-05-05T10:17:00.000-04:002006-05-05T10:17:00.000-04:00"as if God were idly stirring cream in His coffee ..."as if God were idly stirring cream in His coffee cup"<BR/><BR/>I love the way you described the clouds overhead. <BR/>Clew, you are a great mom!
