FULL of Lessons
Chantelle - Morning brains are productive brains!
It is the procrastination curse that has got me this week. Following me around like a 4 year old shadow. Although the real 4 year old brings me more joy, the procrastination only brings me bad dreams full of endless to do lists.
So my lesson this week is "morning brains are productive brains!" I realised I only get less productive the more the day drags on! So stop the procrastinating and get to it! The faster it is done and the to do list nightmare is fleeting the more time we have to be entertained by the real 4 year old shadow of joy! I know easier said than done right!?
Note to self ... Stop procrastinating!!
Hayley - Let them wander
We were in the city, and cutting it fine to meet the fam. We already had to take the long way round because of the a pram and our steps were getting rushed. The little mr took off, captivated by the enormous staircase. "Just grab him and let's go" came from the schedule-driven husband. But as I followed him I could see (besides how gosh darn quick he's getting) that his little inner explorer was on fire, he was loving this, and I just couldn't stop that.
So I let him lead, just a bit more. I picked him up when we reached the Anzac memorial and we even had a quick chat about what it was for. It was a reminder (perhaps not a lesson as I'm admittedly already skilled at taking the long, dawdle friendly route) to let the kid with a fresh pair of eyes take the lead, to go off course every now and then. To let them wander.
What was your lesson of the week?
Love Hayley and Chantelle xx
