Lessons Learned

It seemed strange yesterday to not be taking pictures and writing things down like I did last week. It took some time to do these things, but I am glad I did. I learned several lessons from this activity. First, I do get lots of things accomplished during the week, but usually they are things that get undone almost as soon as I do them (like cleaning, laundry, dinner). Second, it made me slow down and appreciate the little things going on around me (like the kids catching bugs outside or playing nicely together). Lastly, I learned that I had better appreciate what is going on in this time of my life now because I may look back in 5 years and wonder how they grew up so fast ("you're gonna miss this"). I will make a scrapbook for this project, but since most of you won't see that part, just know that I enjoyed the process.
