Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

Mommy hard a study, Children hard at ...


DESTRUCTION!!! I wish I could get as far in my school work as they do at destroying the house. This is the best looking room in my house (minus the girls room because I had to clean that up before they napped in it). This is what happens when I try to study. And Emily is also learning how to put in her own dvds into the dvd player. Most of the time she puts it upside down, but not today. Meredith is definitely capable of destroying stuff by herself, but Emily (the girl in the "terrible twos") is incredibly fast and has learned how to get around ANY obstacle. Put it up high, doesn't work. Hide it, don't kid yourself. I have found one place that works. The microwave. I make sure she doesn't see where I put it (usually the plate of cookies). One time we left the cookies on top of the microwave which resulted in quite a tummy ache for her. You think that would have taught her a lesson, no. Mommy vs. Children. Children 1, Mommy 0. Is it time to go to bed yet? lol
