Reconnecting

Reconnecting……that is is the theme for this month. I don’t mean reconnecting with your internet connection, I mean with yourself, with your family, and with the world around you. Learning how to connect with your family is very important. It is something that I learned while I was away. Edgar and I connected in that way that husbands and wives do when they first marry (No!! I’m not talking in that way..get your minds out of the gutters.) We were able to rediscover the reasons why we first fell in love.  I spent plenty of time just staring at my wonderful husband.

I also reconnected with my children in fresh ways. I haven’t laughed so hard over the stupidest joke in a long time. We spent time making gingerbread houses, playing video games, and learning that they are growing into wonderful, smart people of their own. All the mistakes I thought I was making doesn’t really matter now. Each has their personality that I think I have overlooked in the past. I spent so much time thinking that they think and act the way we do, but the truth is they don’t.

This month I want you all to take some time to reconnect in one way or another with your family. Look at your husband or hug your child for no reason what so ever. Just make sure that they know that you love and appreciate them  each and everyday. You never know when they may show you just how important you are to them. After all, like my son said “He is the one who will be picking out the home I will live in one day.”
