I have to stop what I am so busy doing and just be with her to notice. It always reminds me God loves me even more than I love her. How IS that possible?!

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful moment. Fast and fleeting was the moment, caught by Dad. Nice. @Lance: Welcome, fellow Momgrind fan. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful moment.

I have three kids (14, 12, and 10) - and I'm quickly realizing that hanging out with Dad is becoming less and less important for them. So, my attention was recently captured, walking into the grocery store. I held out my hand, and my 10 year old son grabbed on. And in that moment, I had this flash - that these moments, they're fleeting. How long before he joins the other two, and my hand isn't held when I hold it out (because that's not cool). And so that moment - it was such a moment of being loved...deeply and truly and unconditionally...from my son. And I all of a sudden, I cherished this more than I ever had... Hi Bonnie,
It’s great to be here today, and I discovered your wonderful writing here, coming from Vered’s Momgrind site!

I have three kids (14, 12, and 10) – and I’m quickly realizing that hanging out with Dad is becoming less and less important for them. So, my attention was recently captured, walking into the grocery store. I held out my hand, and my 10 year old son grabbed on. And in that moment, I had this flash – that these moments, they’re fleeting. How long before he joins the other two, and my hand isn’t held when I hold it out (because that’s not cool). And so that moment – it was such a moment of being loved…deeply and truly and unconditionally…from my son. And I all of a sudden, I cherished this more than I ever had…
