Some sweet moments to share

Post by blessedmomof4 » Thu Mar 24, 2011 4:19 pm

This could go in week in review, but I had a lot of smiles to share today.
First, my 13 YEAR OLD begged me to continue reading another chapter of A Little Princess today after we had already finished what was planned-she said, "Please mom, I really LIKE this book!" :) My 11 YEAR OLD was just as eager :) Then my 15 YEAR OLD daughter and 18 YEAR OLD son in college, who were getting ready to leave for ballet lessons/school respectively, started to listen in :D Finally my SON joined in the oral narration :mrgreen:
I am so blessed by HOD, that even though only two of my children are actually using it, the whole atmosphere of our home has changed, and we are all drawing together-it warms my heart so much!
One last note-my 13 year old was thumbing through the CtC guide with GREAT interest, and was asking questions about the pictures on the cover! I think she is excited to begin our new guide-and I just ordered most of the books (had to split the order, oh well) and can't wait till the next box day :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

What a wonderful memory to treasure in your heart! :D We need to take time to rejoice in those moments. As mommas, we'll remember the feelings from a moment like that for years to come! :D

Blessings,
Carrie

Those are sweet moments! That drawing together time - it is food for the soul. As moms, we need to be ever on the lookout for moments like these - as they can often be missed if we're not watching for them. I'm glad you took note of these times, and filed these moments away to be brought out again to bring some cheer when needed. :D Life moves so quickly we can get into the habit of just letting time pass - but wise mamas are watchful mamas. You fit this description - it's why you recognized these were sweet moments to share. :wink:
