the simple things

May 15, 2012

What is your simpleness? What are the simple things that you are taking notice of? This is my column this month in 3008docklands.

******

School holidays have come and now they have gone. The Easter holidays seems soooo long ago. The daily hussle and bussle and chaos continues… and so we wait for that next break. It seems like only yesterday that I found out I was pregnant again. But now… the waiting game is on. Time just seems to have crept closer and closer to “B Day”!

And so I realise, sometimes it is the simple things that matter. The little things. The tiny things. No sooner do we have time to spare, it evaporates so very quickly. What seems like so far away will creep up on you in a second. Literally!

Confession… I often lose sight of the little things, the small things, the things that seem insignificant. But I know that this insignificant occurrence will one day bite me in the back side because I didn’t realise how significant it was. Even the toughest challenges can be the very best thing. A turning point. An eye opener.

So I am now noticing. I am now taking time to observe, process and observe a little more. That cheeky smile. That big bear hug I get just before bed time. That process of sorting her toy dolls.

It is all going to change very quickly. Time will not stand still. Life as I know it is going to change.

a little note: a wrote this column before I had my little munchkin. Now, the simple little things are all so more and more important!

What is your simpleness?

What are the simple things that you are taking notice of?

grateful for friends

May 14, 2012

Sometimes when life gets a little overwhelming, chaotic, emotional and just a little challenging, it is our friends that keep us going. Our friends that lift up our spirits when we are low. Our friends that give us a little extra support, love and warmth. Our friends that offer help when we least expect it. [...]

fun outdoor games

May 8, 2012

While taking a stroll up to our local cafe we couldn’t not stop at every fourth, third, second house to see what flowers they have in their front yard. And not only the flowers in the front yards, but the little flowers on the natures strip, the weeds that we all want to destroy but [...]
