Choose to Connect

I was at a wedding last night. Didn’t know that many people, but those who I did, I hadn’t seen in a long time. They asked about the kids and I showed them pictures and they couldn’t believe how old they were now.

Sometimes neither can I.

There were times when the kids were young when I never thought I’d survive the day, but I did. And usually when I didn’t think  I could push through and juggle babies and diapers and laundry and one more chicken nugget, I had the strength to go above and beyond and connect with my kids. I set my feelings aside and moved passed them.

They were usually moments I chose to do something simple with them: puzzles, dress up, coloring, taking a walk to the park, going out for ice cream. I always found it was good to get out and breathe. It changed my perspective, for good.

Take a breath and connect with your kids. Don’t life for those moments of space (I know it’s hard). Live to connect.

With more classes available weekly, come out and join Pearls For Life;Family Yoga and step away from routine and gain perspective.

Your kids will only be little for awhile and while that sounds REALLY good on some days, make decisions that bring joy in retrospect and not regret.

Take a look at our new class times and come out and connect. Click here for our calendar.
