Why do I usually disrupt my schedule for Abbie?
Because I’m her mother and she’s my daughter.
She’s more important than all my work.
She’s more important than all my personal to-do lists
She’s more important than my routines and tasks
Nothing compares with her!
Today, I am embracing this philosophy as a mother!
“PLAY WITH YOUR KIDS! Your WORK will ALWAYS be THERE. BUT YOUR KIDS WON’T. They’ll GROW UP, have their OWN LIVES, and WALK AWAY. When you age, you’ll always treasure your time with your kids. You’ll always wish that you spent more time with them.”
Ooouch… but this one holds true. We are all operating on a limited time when it comes to our kids. They grow up so fast! This is the appropriate time to take advantage of their clingy tendencies and their dependence on us. Child development tells us that there is a “superstar” for each stage of development. At this stage, family is the most significant, most influential persons to them. Soon she will enter school and become more concerned with peer relationship, hobbies and other interests.
This is my time. So while I am the Superstar and the Megastar in this season of my child’s life, I will make the most out of it! I will shine my star and grab every opportunity to hold her, hug her, play with her and laugh with her! i love you abbie! mwuah!
