Really touching and really thought provoking and if it helps just a handful of people reasses or stop and take stock then it will have been worth posting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1590331586734780274.post-82391632085273617422009-02-21T19:49:00.000+01:002009-02-21T19:49:00.000+01:00@ Lance: my kids are still small so there's lots o...@ Lance: my kids are still small so there's lots of holding hands and hugging and smooches. Time flies and I know that the infant days of breast nuzzling (and sleepless nights for that matter!) are over. No more carrying little Rohan around as he walks and wants to on his own now. And so it goes. But with every thing they stop doing, they also start doing a new thing. Like having a real conversation with you, asking you for advice, hating you :-) It's a rollercoaster ride.Mindful Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446280604807144826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1590331586734780274.post-73570419769979662912009-02-21T05:42:00.000+01:002009-02-21T05:42:00.000+01:00Oh Mimi, I'm not sure what to say.

I have one child who still holds my hand, and it's something I cherish very much, now knowing that the older kids don't do this anymore. <BR/><BR/>I can't thank you enough for sharing this - it's a perspective I can't be reminded of enough.Lancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12347642337022150880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1590331586734780274.post-36268357718822288682009-02-20T14:26:00.000+01:002009-02-20T14:26:00.000+01:00@ Stacey: as long as you have something you like d...@ Stacey: as long as you have something you like doing, life should be great. If you don't enjoy it anymore, you should head for the door. If all people took this at heart the world would be a happier place.<BR/><BR/>@ Jay: it's all happening today and it's all in the little things: A smile, a touch, a word, a hug: Sure the big promotion is nice, and having a new car as well. But deep down that is not where happiness grows.Mindful Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446280604807144826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1590331586734780274.post-87752336864191994852009-02-20T05:03:00.000+01:002009-02-20T05:03:00.000+01:00You find the most delightful things to share with ...You find the most delightful things to share with us.
