It was painting day. So we rolled up our sleeves and you were focus creating your masterpiece. From using a fork to create pattern, you venture out, to fingers printing. It was unusual. This is because you don't like dirty hands. However, you were happy and contented doing thumb printing. I enjoyed the moment. You started to explore and messy, messy and messy. I think I winked my eyes with displeasure. Eventually, I had to say times up and time to clean up. You followed me to clean up. As I was focus cleaning the stain on your dress, you whispered, 'mommy, is shhh shh st.. (this is what I heard).
I stopped. I asked, what did you say again? I learnt to slow down to notice. You gave me a big smile with sparkle eyes and said : Mommy is the best! Wow, you have blown me away. Here I am, cleaning grumpily and chasing the next items on the to do list, you simply slow me down so I can enjoy the moment.
Thank you for that compliment! I am sure 'the best'. *Grin*
