Last week I spent some lovely moments "fishin" with the big boy (Thanks Grumple!)
 |
| Concentration. |
 |
| We hauled plastic snakes out of the kiddie pool for a really, really, long time. |
Sweet outfit he's wearing, eh? Blame hubs.
 |
| Triumph! |
I am trying to make a conscious effort to play with the boys. Especially the big one.
No cell phone nearby, no distractions. Some creative thought on my part.
It surely made for a few great moments.
Happy Friday folks!!
grumple will be very proud. he looks very proficient with the snakes ..hope he has just as good luck with the fish..hope you guys have a great weekend. at least the rains seems to be finished here.need some sun..love you guys MOM
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you pointed out "no cell phone" because it saddens me how distracted parents are these days. Even when we are out & about, I see parents missing moments because they are on their iphones & ipads & such. Their kids are tugging on their sleeves but they are totally tuned out. :( I am glad you were present for this "moment", your lovies will appreciate it later, if they don't already! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder to us all!
I keep landing on this photo of my daughter & pausing for awhile...

I really hope you'll take a moment to come by! :)
Great photos! Hope all is well in your neck of the woods! :)
ReplyDeleteOur moment comes from our trip to the farm to get our weekly CSA and flower share. Our weekly flower share lead to some fun with math (sorting, counting, etc)!
