Another day at home as a family... I know there are days when I can't wait to get out of the house and away from the dishes and laundry and everything that needs to be done. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in what needs to be done that I forget about what I should be doing. It can be hard to just sit and enjoy relaxing for a few hours. Alaina helps to remind me it is worth taking time to stop and smell the roses...or count the lambs. He he!
Alaina has a wonderful swing. Sometimes I wonder if we ever would have survived the last 10 weeks without that thing! What did people do before technology!?! There have been nights where the only place we could get her to sleep was in the swing. Anyway - just in the past week she has began to notice the lambs that dance around above her as she swings and she LOVES them. Now pretty much any time we put her in the swing she TALKS to them. She truly loves those little lambs dancing above her head. I sat and watched her for 20 minutes just stare and coo at them and it was the best 20 minutes of the entire day. Were there other things I should have been doing?!?! HECK YES! But in a week will I remember the dishes I got done or the clothes I folded? No...but I do remember taking the time to stop and count the lambs.
Thank you Lord for life lessons that even a 10 week old can teach me!
