Friday Moments

Friday moments with Soule Mama again today - if you have a moment or two to share - please leave a comment with a link.

I've been really busy lately - I've got a lot of balls in the air. The good news is - the end is in sight for a few of the biggest projects I've been working through. Another week or two of craziness and then life should be settling down again.

My to-do list is looming, my mind always racing around trying to keep everything organized - but my children, my little zen-masters - they always seem to grab my attention and say, "Hey Mama - remember what's really important?"

Oh yeah, to live and to laugh. To focus on them. They teach me so much, these little dudes of mine. If only, I could remind myself to follow their example.

Find a way to enjoy what you've got. Not everything needs to be "fixed."

Somewhat deflated balls are just as fun as fully inflated ones - see?

Take time for meaningful conversation.

Mama, let's talk. This May fly situation has
gotten completely out of hand.

Don't forget to rest. Wherever the mood strikes you.


Cleanliness is overrated.

If you're too busy - you'll miss those incredibly lovely, incredibly rare moments.

Dear Lord, they are SHARING. Did ya SEE that??

Happy Friday gang. 

Now go and honor all the mothers in your life.

    Well done, boys, good sharing! I don't know what to tell you about the May flies except they should be gone soon, they only live for one day. Have a great weekend!

    I love your moments, as usual. Your running the numbers post was hilarious, too! I hope it's a restful, relatively may fly free Mother's Day weekend.
