Every now and then ,
Stop !
Just stop. Whatever you are doing.
And look at you child.
Hold them if you can.
Listen to them.
Be present in that moment.
Make a memory.
Every now and then ,
Put down your phone.
Turn off your TV.
And look at your child.
Hold them if you can.
Be present in that moment.
Make a memory.
Every now and then.
Stop !
Let dinner wait a while.
Put some music on
And make a memory.
Kitchen dance
With your child.
Every now and then.
Stop!
Let the world go by.
And be present.
Wholly present in their life.
They won’t remember
What you gave them
Or how much cash you spent.
They will remember
The time you gave them
And will cherish
every moment.

Happy new year to you too. I loved your ” everybody is fed , nobody is dead ” post !
Oh gosh, this is such a lovely post and so true. It’s so easy to get caught up in the daily routine. Tomorrow I’m going to just be with my kids, and forget everything else. Xxx
