Building Community and Healthy Minds since 2010. Some teachable moments from my preschooler:

1 Mom, going to the store or even to work without wearing foundation is not the end of the world - it even freshens the skin.

2 Not blow-waving my hair is not the end of the world either, an up-do is really quick and leaves time for more play. - Plus the fun of undoing the up-do, just as we head out the door, is just too enticing for a preschooler’s hands…

3 The amount of pleasure and squeals at bath time is directly correlated to the amount of water and suds on the floor and walls.

4 The allure of checking out the girls’ game next door is not diminished by the fact that we are still in our PJ’s at ten on a Sunday morning.

In short: being a mom to a young boy has taught me to forget about myself, re-arrange my priorities and just relax and have fun. Of course it has also taught me tremendous respect for my dear Elizabeth and Barbara, who raised multiple young ones with such poise! Relax, have fun, and a Super day.
