The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

October 27, 2011

{i want to remember} – 10/27/11

Sometimes life gets so busy that I forget to notice and appreciate the little things.  Here are some of the things I am loving this week:

I WANT TO REMEMBER… how J “shares” his food with me.  It’s usually him taking food out of his mouth, but hey!  Sharing is sharing, right?

I WANT TO REMEMBER… how much fun we are having with school.  Just when I think everything I’ve taught has gone in one ear and out the other, M will say, “Hey Mamma, there are Chinese kids on Sesame Street.  Just like in Ping!  I wonder if they are going to the Great Wall of China!”  (True Story!)  My Mamma heart soars with pride.

I WANT TO REMEMBER… how the boys are really into forts right now.  Anything can be a fort: beds, the table, even J’s high chair!  I think my tentative Christmas gift for them just became permanent.

I WANT TO REMEMBER… the lessons learned from this blog post.  Such a powerful post…definitely a must read.

    Don't you love boys and how they can make forts out of anything? Can't wait for that phase. And so sweet that little J shares his food with you! 🙂
