SABRINA

I recently read a statement that rings very true. "Children don't THINK much about their parents-they EXPERIENCE them." Children can be happy with parents one moment and then angry for what they deem a ridiculous rule. They don’t analyze, they just experience - albeit on an emotional roller coaster level.

Young minds are not analytical-that comes with maturity, perhaps a loss of innocence. I think that often as parents, we, on the other hand, tend to be so busy THINKING about our children that we do not EXPERIENCE them. We are so busy thinking about how to fit in the next activity for a successful child or a memorable family moment that we miss the experience of the wonderment of those we love the most.

I encourage you today to THINK less and EXPERIENCE more. See the world through the eyes of a child! There may be something you are missing!
