Today I had planned to do all of the house work. Should have. I have a
stack of sewing for myself and others that needs doing. Could have. But the
warmth of the winter sun called me. Instead of doing what my OCD mind was telling
me. I gave my flu riddled body a break. Time out, and instead I lay on the
grass.
Too lazy to even get a rug, I lay with my body touching the earth, and watched
Jarvis happily play in the sun. All I
had was my camera and my box of tissues.
I watched how happy Jarvis was with his ever present rake, just
pottering about in the sun collecting leaves, and I reminded myself yet again,
sometimes it is okay, not to doing anything, but enjoy the moment.
nawww...what a perfect way to spend an hour. Time passes so quickly that it's good to stop and do little at least once a day. Bless Jarvis's love of your tummy too :D Hope you feel well again very soon.

Deleteps Priscilla is a braze amazing woman
He's so lovely! Hope you're feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteJarvis is so affectionate, yet so rough.
DeleteI have adopted "The Hour of Power" where I lie perfectly still for 60 minutes each day. Even if is on top of a washing pile. That is my therapy xx

Sometimes it's important to forget about the things you have to do and simply enjoy the moment. Jarvis is such a darling!
ReplyDeleteJarvis often reminds me...makes me/ to just enjoy the moment
DeleteHow precious! Life just goes on and some things are put off, but as long as there are important things going on in life that makes up for it :) All the little this and that's will be done no worries!
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing, my world did not fall apart because I didn't do the housework! Hmm who would have known? :)
DeleteAwww... such sweetness!
ReplyDeleteHe is. Jarvis is the sweetest cuddliest thing, but he is also a rough boy.
DeleteHim blowing raspberries on your tummy made me say "AWWW" out loud. I agree with you, sometimes it's good just to be present with your child and observe. <3 (I hope you feel better however)
ReplyDeleteIt's funny and sweet how Jarv like to blow raspberries on us.
DeleteYou will never look back at that day and wish that you did all those coulda, shouldas. x
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. Cuddles are the best thing ever
