mother*wonder Monday - definition

Mother*wonder is my way to 

attribute a phrase

to recognizing the

  details of the day

as a mom.

It's stopping in the 

noise of life

to see little what makes

your life 

with your children special.

It's giving attention to 

what they will remember.

So many times we can 

easily remember and guilt ourselves

over the things we did not do.

Mother*wonder is taking 

time to acknowledge

in the moment

how you are impacting your

child's life.

Maybe you didn't make the cookies,

but did you sit and really enjoy them

with your children?

Maybe at bedtime you couldn't

come up with the greatest-story-ever-told

{I think that one was already penned

a few years ago anyway}

but did you give your time and love?

Mother*wonder is the rituals

we create to give our children peace,

comfort, security, and confidence to grow.

I will be posting regularly

on Mondays

about mother*wonder.

You will see the little signature above each post.

Sometimes it may be a little story about our week,

or ideas for finding more time for wonder.  

Ways to capture those moments, and slow things down.

I hope you will find some inspiration as I do from you,
 and I would love to hear any ideas you have.
