Monday Musings with Rachelle

NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THIS DAY.

–Unknown source

I’ve seen this quote in a couple places recently and it impressed me so much that I added it to my vision board. It’s a great reminder for me to stop and look at the moment that I’m in–whether I’m frustrated with my children and tired of the yelling/screaming/tantrum/mess capades or I’m questioning the worth of how I’m spending my time and what will come of it. Nothing is more important than this day–thinking that has helped me grab onto some pretty spectacular moments before they slipped through the walls of time.

I let my girls sleep in and they were about two minutes late to school, then I went for a walk with friends, talked about great books, played with my boys, I’ll be making brownies for the teachers at the school, cooking dinner, outlining a new novel, working on social media, AND I’m going to make some time to call a dear friend, then curl up on the couch with a good book. I’m doing all this with a different perspective because I realized that right now, nothing is more important than this day.

How important is your day today?

Monday Musings with Rachelle

I love my family and my sweet kids. It’s always so much fun watching my kids fill out Valentine’s for their classes. It brought back a sweep of memories as I watched them sort through the cards and choose just the right one for each person in the class. I remember doing that!

I remember trying to find just the right card for the boy that I had a crush on–one that wasn’t too obvious, but also conveyed some subliminal cue that I was definitely someone he should notice.

I also remember selecting the most special card for my best friends–ones that conveyed a message of how glad I was to have such great friends.

To all of my followers and friends — thank you. I appreciate what you add to my life and I hope that you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day 2019!
