Anticipating moments that will last a lifetime. There are moments that take place that take your breath away as a parent. Although there are times when you may want to cry. The times when you can hear laughter coming from your children can carry you through most anything. You long for little moments when you catch a glimpse of their wonderful hearts.
You know they are there because you planted little seeds in them to come out as a parent. You are the best example of what you want to see in them. They want to be like you. They emulate you. Why not show them the best of you? Those moments when you want to get upset, show kindness. Those little moments will add up. The little moments when you cringe and say something under your breath, may be repeated. Being conscious of all that you do, will help those little moments shine through your children.
There will be a wonderful legacy shining forth when the little moments become big moments. They will see your day to day efforts and know what you taught them by your actions. When you plan your little moments to make them better you will see better outcomes. Take those little moments and cherish them. They are the best moments. All of them, because we are alive.
