Slow Down

Thanksgiving was great. I actually took a couple of days to slow down. The rain helped slow down the activities but I made a "subconscious" effort to slow down. I spent time playing with my son and daughter. Not so easy with a 15 year old who seems to being going at 90 miles an hour all the time herself. We are overbooking ourselves and our kids. We are trying to better ourselves and our kids at the expense of really enjoying life and family. I am in favor of reaching potential and getting the most our of life but "the most out of life" is enjoying what we have right in front of us. Family and friends.
