You love your children so much. It is apparent in a lot of the pieces I have read of your lately. They mean so much to you, remind you of so many of the little things and bring you such meaning. Family has the ability to do so many wonderful things for us and it fills us with all the right things (most of the time). It is a challenge to be present when other things weigh on us. Hard to appreciate the time and moments we have. We are all learning, aren't we. So wonderful that you could recognize this moment for what it was and then remind us all.... Be Present! -LaverneKindredAdventureshttp://twitter.com/KindredAdventurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1854254105777617960.post-62367017607642909632011-10-11T06:22:34.220-04:002011-10-11T06:22:34.220-04:00Great!
