How to appreciate your kids more…
It’s a goal we should all have, appreciating our kids more…if you would like to appreciate your kids more, realize just how wonderful they truly are, then I have a suggestion.
Are you ready?
OK, very simple…
Spend time with other people’s children. Yours then do not seem so difficult. Many of us have a higher appreciation for our own children. Call it tolerance if you like. It just seems that when I am around other people’s children I can truly appreciate my kids more. Despite the fact they they have a tremendous talent for driving me nuts, they’re pretty respectful and mannerly most of the time.
Just a thought…
Spent the weekend out of town. Bummed about the AU game. Props to Arkansas for taking the win. Pffffffft to AU for giving it up. Had to happen eventually I guess.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope life slows down soon.





I agree with you even though we don’t have kids yet. Every time I see what I think are “bad” kids I see even worst. I think the main key is spending time with kids period. So many of our friends would rather go do their own thing and have someone else have their kids. So sad but true.
This was a great post, and one I needed to hear.
I find that often after a hard day with other people’s kids, I have no patience left for mine, and that’s not fair to her, because she’s a good girl.

Ahh, yes. The grass isn’t always greener. Life gets pushed back into perspective when you had a chance to stand on the other lawn for a while. Thanks for the reminder.
