Real Imagination!
Sometimes I sit and wonder with amazement watching my children as they embark on different journeys they take on in everyday life. The other day all of my kids were in our one room with 15 or so cardboard boxes. Crayons, scissors and markers were pulled out and creations began to unfold. This went on for hours. No fighting, no nothing but pure fun and total bliss. They were basking in the joy of each others company and their siblings art. They made so many great things. No cares or worries.
As I moved to another room I just reflected on how fast that they grow. How wonderful life is with knowing that I see my children happy. Yes, there are times where they have moments where they struggle, where they have illnesses, disabilities and with my eclectic group, different diseases, but that is what makes my family what it is. My family is strong. We have gone through so much as a family it bonds us better than any super glue you can imagine! There are times where I need to step away and stick myself in time out as I have moments of Eeeks…lol Nothing is ever going to be perfect, you just cannot have that, that is fake imagination. Unlike what I saw with my children and the boxes. That was real.
To realize that everyone of my kids have a part of Tim and I in them, excites me. My kids are who they are because of who Tim and I are.
So give yourself a pat on the back today…your kids are little you’s, lol the good and the bad and well…the…(I will let you fill in the rest)
