Reminding myself to be in the momentđź’
Lately I’ve been catching my mind wandering even when I’m right here with my kids. One minute I’m pushing my toddler on the swing, and the next my brain is juggling:
→ Laundry piling up
→ Emails waiting
→ What’s for dinner tonight
→ And a dozen other things that can definitely wait…
Meanwhile, his little world is so beautifully simple:
“Mommy is pushing me on the swing.” ❤️
Becoming a mom has taught me how important and rare the present moment is. We’re pulled in every direction — by devices, calendars, to-do lists and then we feel overstimulated when our kids ask for a simple request like a snack or a pre-bedtime dance party.
This is my PSA to myself (and to whoever needs to hear it):
Slow down. Let the non-priority thoughts pass. Our kids don’t care if the dishes are done, they care that we gave them our undivided attention today.
These years are going by so fast. I want to pause, remember and enjoy them more.
