Quality time in the laundry or quality time with my kids? And while I do get a stupid amount of satisfaction from having an empty laundry hamper, I get more than satisfaction when my kids come home from kinder with projects that say "I like it when.....my mummy plays with me lots!" Certainly a stark reminder of what's important. Thanks for the comment!

And you don't need a camera - just noticing colour in life is a wonderful act of mindfulness. xOneSmallLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10969675623452075422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171359807820844695.post-88971190012147536642014-08-31T21:25:08.818+10:002014-08-31T21:25:08.818+10:00I have enjoyed reading this post.

Time goes too fast. When the kids talk about a time when we have done something special together, that's what makes me smile. I like that they have remembered what a great time we have had.Simonehttp://withvintageandme.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171359807820844695.post-77263492912207897282014-08-31T21:23:43.070+10:002014-08-31T21:23:43.070+10:00I know!

They don't really withstand an adult sensibility, but it's easy to see why the kids love them - they are just so silly!OneSmallLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10969675623452075422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171359807820844695.post-4449472021006295042014-08-31T20:50:09.139+10:002014-08-31T20:50:09.139+10:00Love the sheep in Lego land and the Mr Men books!Love the sheep in Lego land and the Mr Men books!Miss Adelaidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05483214497024605264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5171359807820844695.post-64227148725791318302014-08-31T20:20:54.260+10:002014-08-31T20:20:54.260+10:00Paying attention to colour makes me smile too!
