“Insta”-replay, taking time to slow down

Taking time to slow down sometimes just means making an effort to notice what is going on around you.


This year I started a “creative journal” besides keeping track of daily goals, like Bible reading and stretching, I’m also keeping track of long term goals like books I’ve read this year and things I’m grateful for.


Merry has found a few buyers willing to support her art. I have to say I am very impressed with her consistency drawing the same picture multiple times.


Technology can detract from family time, but it can also add to it. Such was the case with Aunt Katie’s hair and makeup app, it added many laughs to family time.


Libraries are wonderful places, filled with books.  Those books can turn time spent waiting into time spent exploring and learning.  I’m trying to learn from my kids and read more also.


Kids are always happy to put another dentist visit behind them, it helps that they are once again cavity free! 


For a few more days, well one more day, she is 11. I’m not sure I’m ready for 12, but she sure seems to be! Either way a birthday is coming soon! I guess somethings you can’t slowdown.
