At home as i walk and work I remind myself to SMILE at my children as they come and go. Sometimes life can get a bit full-on… the morning drill when one can’t find a sock, another reminds me I was supposed to bake a cake for school, someone knocks on the door, a glass of milk spills on the floor and my daughter comes out in a scrunched up looking uniform. It’s wonderful mid motion to be able to look over into one of their faces and SMILE. No matter how hectic things get a smile can quickly brighten the atmosphere and convey warmth. It’s nice when you don’t have enough arms or legs and there’s no time to stop, to have something so easy and ready to give!
