My wish would be that we teach our son to be a good person so he can live a happy and fulfilling life. We have one life to make good choices, I need to make it count. #growinglittleq #mywishforyou #wishforthefuture #mychildwish #wishforyourhappiness #lovewish #mindfulness #betterworld #bethelight #momlove #dadlove #selflove #raisingthefuture #bloggermoms #momswhoblog #momblogger #blog #bloggermommy #momblogging #momblogs

Sloth-like Life⠀
We go to work, feed the kids (recommended multiple times a day), clean the house, shop for groceries, do laundry and put it all away. Whew! And, now that it's summer, there's mowing, planting, gardening, landscaping, more mowing, and somehow fit in a few camping trips or a vacation. If it's not just me, there are also the extra things you'd like to achieve but without enough hours in the day. We occupy our day to day lives with so much "stuff".⠀
⠀
It was suggested I read a book about sloths that explains why we should take their cues. I admit, I recently purchased one but have barely gotten a page or two into it so far. I haven't read a book that wasn't a baby board book in a long while. There's not enough time!⠀
⠀
I am excited to hear it reiterated that we don't need to accomplish so much every day. That accomplishing all the tasks on our to-do list will merely make us tired. Okay, I really don't know exactly what the book states yet. However, I do know we need to slow down and enjoy all the little things life has to offer. To remember that time flies whether you are having fun or not.⠀
⠀
Taking care of ourselves and slowing down is a necessity for our mental and physical health. Take a moment to observe what's going on around you and breathe. ⠀

Does anyone else run out of time to type up a good blog?? I promise I'll have one next week. It'll work. No really. It's happening. Maybe don't hold your breath. But it'll be good. I'm sure. Okay, yep.⠀
In the meantime, here's a picture of little Q driving the big tractor with daddy!⠀

Parenting a 7 month old is somewhat easy, so far. They haven’t quite figured out precisely what you’re saying yet, but appear to understand and they look so endearing smiling up at you while waiting for you to smile back. When I… Read More

The Greek poet Hesiod said “moderation in all things” which, sadly, also encompasses food. I have a big sweet tooth and love bread! A great start, right? Well, my husband and I are in our 40’s so we need to stay healthy… Read More

I hate clutter and we have it! At night I run around picking things up, putting things away, and as soon as I feel like everything is somewhat under control, we get mail with magazines, other toys pulled out for Q, pots, pans,… Read More

Squirrel!! I am like Dug, the dog in “Up” where he gets utterly distracted when he sees a squirrel. I start putting laundry away and (squirrel) see something that needs to go to the living room, then tromp out there to (squirrel)… Read More

I love children, family, organizing, chocolate and I LOVE Pinterest! I hate my picture taken and multiple vegetables. I need to get in better shape, but dislike working out. I like to bake but I don’t because I don’t need to eat… Read More
