Wherever you turn today, kids and parents are in motion. From car pools to school activities ,to parents working and juggling home; life is running in the fast lane. Our smart tech savy homes contain our world and many of us are not even engaged in the present moment. I see parents at the playground reading their emails while their children are giggling and growing up right in front of them.They are just missing all these moments that will never come again. As much as we rely on our devices to function day to day, we must turn them off to interact with our kids. Do you want them to remember that moment, your eyes off them as they look for your reaction as they play?Let’s all slow down and try to remember how special it is to enjoy the outdoors and this time with our kids.
You will get more out of your life by simplifying your moments .
Day: October 10, 2017
As we organize and settle into school, we begin a fresh new routine. Routine is necessary in life and makes us all feel whole. It is the time of year we begin new projects and patterns. Life turns inward and the daily routine gives us structure and focus in our days.
This Fall, try to find a pocket of time that can be shared. Whether it be a walk in the park , time to create or time to stare into the beautiful trees of crimson and gold. Slow down because in these moments we fully embrace life.Try to park your technology if you can and explore the world around you. It is a fun season that you don’t want to overlook. Take advantage of the hayrides and the pumpkin picking. Share some hot chocolate with your kids and tell stories around the fire. Some of the best times in life are simple moments.
Create simple moments that you can share with those you love.
