It was hard to get to the gym more than three times a week, to make it to all those social events, to get to the grocery store, to put away all the laundry. One person’s level of busy doesn’t make another person not busy. Finding time for the gym, social events, groceries and laundry may not be easier, but it’s not impossible either. It’s not about more or less busy, it’s about a shift in priorities.
Nevertheless, after my son gets dropped off at preschool, I pop baby girl in the stroller and off we go for a morning walk. I get my body moving and awake, while the walk actually relaxes my baby and gets her ready for her morning nap. Whether it’s Latin or rap, at some point during the day, usually after dinner, we turn Alexa on and get moving together as a family. I know a lot of mommas have more flexibility to get out of their home and do thinks like Hike It Baby or even Camp Gladiator.
A Collection Of Read to me riddles and read to me rhymes. After coming down with scarlet fever, a small boy’s beloved stuffed rabbit must be destroyed; however, a magic fairy turns the rabbit into a real one because of the boy’s love. A second grade boy discovers a love of poetry with the help of his teacher, Mrs. Stretchberry, and his beloved dog. A favorite read-aloud book of poetry for kids in which the reader will learn why arguing with sharks, eating dinosaurs, or having an alligator for a pet aren’t good ideas.
After a lot of research and contacting organizations (Micah 6 Pantry, Mobile Loaves & Fishes, Hope Food Pantry, Capital Food Bank), I found the best way to give back is by doing something on your own to benefit an organization. For example, Mobile Loaves & Fishes has a need for desserts that are easily transportable, so they gave us the idea to put cookies into individual Ziploc bags. For the care kits, Julia came up with a list of what she wanted to include (men’s shirt, travel size lotion, deodorant, tooth paste and toothbrush, Chapstick, water, Goldfish, note). A mom recently told me that her daughter gave a kit to someone, and a few days later, they saw them wearing the shirt she was given in the kit.
