They are always learning...

I am realizing more and more that EVERYDAY my children are learning...from me! What I do, they are learning to do. The everyday things I do will become normal to them. What I read, they will read; what I watch, they will watch; what I eat they will think is normal food; what I say, will be acceptable to them. I know this isn't shocking news but sometimes I need a wake up call that every minute I am being watch and every day is important.
I love the job of teaching my children, but that doesn't happen only when I want it to...every moment I am a mama I am these little ones teacher. I am thankful, humbled, and in awe of this responsibility. Aren't you?!

Is that a green smoothie I see!? :) Great job mama. I have to tell you though...if that's the spring mix lettuce, it's not my favorite as far as taste, especially for kiddos. Baby spinach (organic of course!) is much, much milder and sweeter. Perfect for your daily green smoothie fix. The mixed greens, romaine, and other such lettuces can be a bit "spicy" and "greener" tasting.

So good to hear your voice today! Love you!

P.S. And yes, I agree with what you're saying. Sometimes I look at Bella and think..."where did she learn to act like that!?" ha ha. Oh yes...from me.

Here we go... said...

Glad to see you've "jumped aboard". The funny thing is I know that by saying that and reading Sara's post, you will probably want to not make another green smothie, ever. Haha, rebellious girl, I got your number!!
