they remind me to slow down
to really really slow down
i always seem to be on the go
trying to get it all done
trying to check things off the list
trying to make sure i'm not left behind
i realize that this is all in my head
i've always been like this
always trying to get around the next corner before....
before what?
to find what?
slow is good
slow is necessary
slow is something i'm learning
slow is something i'm enjoying...little by little
Love those little girls!

I am a terror at not slowing down. I find myself almost incapable not to speed walk when I'm going from A to B, even.
When I cook, I can slow down. But like you, I'm learning as I go. It really appeals to me though, so that's a good start I guess :)
Best wishes to you xo
in my head -- yes, this is why i "dance" -- gets me out of my head and grounds me (a gabrielle roth cd to move to at home would be a fun one to do w/the girls -- i think it's called endless wave) --
right now tho i am having kitchenette envy (yours is awesome!), and flashbacks to my first wee house with kids and cabinets just like yours that i had to tie shut with rope (!) because the kiddie locks available at the time didn't work with my kids!
