There are other things I’ve learned from my kids, too many to mention, but here’s a short list: -I’ve learned what it means to have compassion for myself because if I don’t, my kids won’t have any for themselves. -I’ve learned not to drop f-bombs when I stub my toe. -I’ve learned what it means to love someone so much you think your heart might explode. -I’ve learned that sometimes love looks like cleaning mascara off all four of your bathroom walls because your two year old daughter thought it was paint, and that the bathroom looked “boring”, before. -I’ve learned that I can slow down, and listen, and be present because they’re little for such a short period of time, and that everything else is less important. -I’ve learned that nothing is better than the sound of their laughter, or the feel of those little arms around my neck. It’s a wonder I haven’t eaten their cheeks off. *The latest Dear Life is so good. Answered by one of my besties: Ally Hamilton of Yogis Anonymous!! heart emoticon via Jennifer Pastiloff
