After my last post, I thought I'd gotten it straight: stop and smell the roses.
But yesterday, I had the day off with my little girl and instead of smelling the roses and taking life in, I lined up errand upon errand upon errand. Rushed her around and stressed us both out.
Then, in what turned out to be the final store, she sat down on a big cushion and pointed to the one next to her. "Sit with me, Mama!" she said. I relented (although still checking my watch) and she hugged me.
"We're together!" she whispered excitedly.
What a wise kid I have.
