This is too perfect not to share. It comes from Kelle Hampton's most recent blog post, From Two to Three. This is the kind of mom I want to be, the kind of Wyldlife leader I want to be, the kind of sister, daughter, friend I want to be. It's the kind of person I want to be. Celebrating the little things just because. Celebrating life.
"You don't have to go an extra mile to create imaginative memories for kids--an inch is all it takes. A lunch becomes a picnic when you add a blanket. A nail painting session becomes a spa night when you throw some cucumber slices in the mix. Dinner becomes a dinner party when
everyone wears a hat. Cooking becomes a "cooking show" when
you describe every step while you stir (and do it in a British
accent!). A living room dance becomes a Carnegie Hall performance when
you shine a flashlight on the dancer. Grocery shopping becomes an
adventure when you stop to talk to the lobsters.
And life becomes Enjoying the Small Things when you dare to take a
different perspective. By golly, have fun. And I promise I'll never
say "by golly" again."
