Want to coyor Mommy...yeah O.K.!

I forgot to mention in between all of my cleaning and organizing I've been taking breaks throughout the day to color, or should I say but the caps back on the markers. This has become one of his favorite things to do! We sit in the same chairs, his facing the TV. so he can see himself, while he proceeds to tell me what each color is, which he knows! We are now learning dark and light colors, something to mix up the routine! So in the midst of coloring, most times having something more important to do, I'm reminded that this is what is MOST important! To love and spend quality time with my son, to teach him and guide him as best I know how, to nurture and show mercy to the best of my ability. Knowing that someday my son will live up to and exceed his potential and God given gifts. Sometimes we need these little breaks to clear our mind and to refocus on what's most important. So if you don't have kids and you work all day, I encourage you to take a break and doodle, you never know what will happen! Let's just hope you don't get fired! :)

Just a side note:
As I've been reading this book, Captivating, the word mercy had come up alot. So I looked it up in the dictionary and as I read the description it brought out a whole new meaning to this word.

Mercy: Compassionate treatment of those under one's power, a disposition to be kind and forgiving and a blessing.
