The Little Things

How often do you take time to stop and think about the little things in life?  There are so many joyous moments in life but we just have to remember to stop and take a moment to notice.
Don’t take life or people for granted.

Wise words from Monsters

These are some serious words given my attachment to my Monday morning cookies … but I’m glad I shared them all with you!

Basmati rice, the book bag. Freedoms of expression for chidren.

We love to eat basmati rice in our house.  It smells so fragrant while it’s cooking, if you haven’t tried it you really must.  We buy really large bags of the rice, about the size of a pillowcase.   We buy really large quantities of everything.  The bag actually looks like a pillowcase as it’s cloth, a similar size and it zips up across the top.  It has navy blue and red writing in arabic on the bag, the rice is imported.  This photo is an example, not the actual brand.

But this story is not about rice. It’s about the bag and a little boy.

Listen Earnestly.

“Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what.  If you don’t listen eagerly to the little things when they are little, they won’t tell you the big stuff when they are big, because to them all of it has always been big stuff.”

Catherine M. Wallace

What a wise lady.
