‘Mini People Rule Our Lives’
Ever think about how much time you spend on your children, but how little you cherish?
In just one day you might:
Wake them up... 3 times
Make them breakfast, most of which will end up on their pj's or on the floor
Get their wriggly bodies dressed
Brush their teeth
Find their shoes that they hid in the kitchen cupboard
Pack a bag for the day containing most of the things you own
Try to find a way to entertain them for the next 12 hours
Buy and prepare the many snacks they are going to consume
Strap them in and out of the car seat what feels like 100 times.
.....
Plus everything else I've not mentioned in these many daytime hours
.....
Make them their tea that they don't want because they didn't choose it
Feed them their tea, also leaving your kitchen looking like a world war
Start to calm them down for bed time, while they have completely different idea's
Read them a bed time story
Put them back in bed 5 times
Tidy up the whole house from the day
...
All these things are done to keep your little ones happy and living, but all the bits in-between such as the facial expressions, the new words, the things that make you laugh, the mile stones etc etc. are completely forgotten and taken away with the boring daily tasks.
Please please please take a few moments out of each day to cherish their personalities....or better, let me catch it on camera so that you will never forget!!
