Enjoying Day 15 and 16

Day 15: Yesterday I enjoyed bedtime with the kids. They had funny bedtime conversation as I drifted off to sleep!

Day 16: Today we enjoyed making sugar cookies together! I had planned to do this the other day but KNEW we were not in a place of enjoyment, so I bagged it. Today we were much more peaceful and ready to enjoy our Christmas cookie endeavor.

What I'm learning: I'm realizing that enjoying my children isn't necessarily doing anything different with them. It's simply a change in my focus, my perspective of the events and at times slowing down to actually enjoy the moment.
