Hi!! The tip I have for you today, is quite simple and you may want to keep doing it everyday. You can do it while your children are awaken or sleeping, just stop for a few minutes and look at them. Really look at them, and notice how much they changed it over the months, over the years... their hair, their laugh, voice, eyes, personality... you may be surprised a by a gasp in your heart and a knot in your throat. Time does flies... Look at the size of their feet and hands, some children may no fit in your lap anymore, put them side by side with you and they may be half of you already or even taller. Reflect a bit, about your parenting, your attitudes, the time you talk and have silly conversations with them, don't judge yourself, I am sure you are doing everything you possibly can, but change is also part of us growing, and if you could change something about your relationship with your children what it would be, can you try again tomorrow? Our busy lives sometimes doesn't give us the opportunity to really look at our children and notices the changes happening in them. And time doesn't forgive, don't take time for granted. Did you notice when we meet friends and they say how much our children changed or grown and we usually think that they haven't changed that much? It's normal, because we are with them all the time and unfortunately some things goes unnoticed, so take the time now to notice this changes. Make every second count, create beautiful memories with them and for them, and some day in a near future when you stop, you might have some tears of joy and a smile on your face, for all the moments you had with them and for all the times you were able to stop, to notice, and to reflect. Memories are things we usually hold dear in our hearts, it's sweet to remember good times and a learning curve for the mistakes we do. And how worthy will be for our children and they learn to stop, and notices us and see that time has also passed for us but they have all these amazing memories they can hold dear to their hearts.
