Thankful

Amongst many other things, today I am thankful for...
The blue eyes that seem to mirror the Creator's sky.
Making our daily lunch mess outside.
Swings and the contentment they bring.
And for the extra set of hands who willingly helped keep that swing a swingin'.
And finally, for the fact that at the park, even time-out offers a chance to just sit in the shade and enjoy our Father's handiwork.

What are you thankful for today?

Ditto what Deb said.You have a way of taking us back to what really matters. If we could all just see through youthful, fresh eyes our world would be a better place.

What a most effective way for timing out!!! I am amazed. I too had my heart strings pulled on seeing him sitting there. But what a way for a child to regroup, slow the speed down, and reflect. Up for writing a book on childrearing? I love the way they get to enjoy so much time outdoors and take in the summer!!!
