Sue Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 Hi everyone!!After my nephews baptism we went to my neices for brunch. Whenever we have a family get together I usually sit on the floor. One I feel safer, two I love to play with the kids anyway Well after we ate we proceeded outside on the patio. So I sat with my little neice Quynn, she is 3 by her outside playset next to the patio where everyone else is. Before I knew it I was swarmed with little ones wanting to know what to play!!!My neice says"This is Dewey (she can't say Aunt Susie) lets play garden. and Dewey your the best flower in it and your my faorite!!! so my sister overheard this and asked her why I was her favorite. and she says because I always sit with the kids and don't ignore them!!! I thought it was beautiful. (and might have woke up a few people!!)So my lesson to myself is. You never know what impact you have on someone else, even a child. A year ago I would have just passed on this occassion. Opting to stay home worrying about when, where I was going to be sick again. No more I'll just keep my spot on the floor HugsSue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
