Have you ever had a moment when you realized that you weren't doing as great of a job at something as you thought you were? I'm stumbling upon that right now. I thought I was doing such a good job of teaching and guiding my daughter, and I've realized lately (really the last two days) that I've just been coasting through her life. I haven't been spending the time teaching her life lessons or how to act in situations. I've been lucky that she is naturally well-behaved, well I guess I've trained her a little in that area, but I haven't spent the time I should teaching her.
It's just been laying heavy on my heart lately. I've been spending so much time worrying about "me time" that I haven't been taking advantage of the "mommy/daughter" time that I so cherish. My new To-Do list:
1. Spend Quality Time with God.
2. Spend Quality Time with Lindsay, teaching her "life lessons" instead of putting on Puppies!
3. Re-enforce the good that my husband does, remind him that he is a crucial part to this family and that we appreciate everything that he does.
4. Have Lindsay help me outside....there's two reasons for that:
1) The yard needs picking up and flowers need to be planted.
2) Lindsay LOVES to be outside and run around (and it makes for pretty good nap times!)
5. Make Dinner :)
I hope you have a blessed day.
