It has become extremely clear to me that it is 100% impractical to blog every single day. I am finding it difficult enough to give myself one hour each day. I have decided that when I am able to do this, I will blog about my experience.
This being said, today I gave myself two hours! What did I decide to do for these two hours you wonder? I RanI Chased
I Played
I Laughed
I Jumped
I Ate
I Got Sticky
I Tickled
I Kissed
I Hugged
I Hid
and I had the Best two hours!
I decided to call my cousin and baby-sit my Godson while she ran some errands. Ayden is a 2 ½ year old with a stubborn attitude, contagious laugh and the most beautiful smile I have ever seen. I cannot think of a better way to spend my morning. Before he was born, I had little interaction with children because until him, I was the youngest in the family. I never understood how people could grow so attached to someone who couldn’t talk and to be honest, I was intimidated by their dependency on those around them. But, from the moment Ayden was born it all made sense. They are so innocent and so cute you want to squish their delicate frame into a huge bear hug.
When my cousin asked me to be Ayden’s Godmother I was honoured and take the responsibility seriously. I want him to always feel comfortable with me and I want him to always know how much I care for him. At two and a half (terrible twos and all) there is no one else I would like to spend my morning with. Who else in the world can you chase, around the same coffee table, and get a laugh every single time. Children have the ability to (even just for a moment) take away all the worries, fear and stress in your life. I understand they are exhausting and difficult but that’s the beauty of being a Godmother, isn’t it? I get to leave after only a few hours! I am perfectly happy, to play with him and get my fill of awesome for the day!
Wishing you sticky play-dates ahead
