and Sunny Yellow Dandelions

When I look at
a patch of dandelions, I see a bunch of weeds that are going to take
over my yard.
My kids see
flowers for Mom and blowing white fluff you can wish on. |
|
|
|
When I look at
an old drunk and he smiles at me, I see a smelly, dirty person who
probably wants money and I look away.
My kids see
someone smiling at them and they smile back. |
|
|
|
When I hear
music I love, I know I can't carry a tune and don't have much rhythm so
I sit self-consciously and listen.
My kids feel
the beat and move to it. They sing out the words. If they don't know
them, they make up their own. |
|
|
|
When I feel
wind on my face, I brace myself against it. I feel it messing up my hair
and pulling me back when I walk.
My kids
close their eyes, spread their arms and fly with it, until they fall to
the ground laughing. |
|
|
|
When I pray, I
say thee and thou and grant me this, give me that.
My kids say,
"Hi God! Thanks for my toys and my friends. Please keep the bad
dreams away tonight. Sorry, I don't want to go to Heaven yet. I would
miss my Mommy and Daddy." |
|
|
|
When I see a
mud puddle I step around it. I see muddy shoes and dirty carpets.
My kids sit
in it. They see dams to build, rivers to cross, and worms to play with. |
|
|
|
I wonder if we
are given kids to teach or to learn from? No wonder God loves the little
children!
Enjoy the
little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they
were the big things. |
|
|
I
wish you Big Mud Puddles and Sunny Yellow Dandelions!!!
"Life
is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that
take our breath away." |
