Why is it that so often we as adults feel swept up by our to-do lists, errands and the like?  Recently, it has seemed that my life is whizzing by in one quick to-do-list blink.

But it was when I observed my two little ones over the weekend, that I yearned for the wild abandon they seem to live their lives by.  It awakened in me something that had been held down by all those things I thought I had to do.  But, in all reality, do I really need to get all those items crossed of my list?  Do I really need to get all the laundry done?  (I mean let’s face it…It is never really done is it?)

So, with that, I have decided to try my best to live a little bit more like my girls.  With at least a hint of that wild abandon they embody on a daily basis, and a bit more mindfulness, I venture into the rest of this week.

I hope all of you can find some carefree freedom as you move throughout this week.
