I know I’m supposed to be the one teaching my son everything about life, but there’s so much he teaches me. Even just over the course of the last weekend, I learned so much from him. Not yet jaded by life, he brings a fresh perspective full of optimism that I cannot match.
These were his life lessons this weekend:
1. If you take more than you can handle, figure out how to make it more manageable.
We went to Tickleberry’s which has legendary giant ice cream scoops. I took mine in a waffle cone, but he wisely used a paper cup. He knew it was more than he could handle in a cone and realized this would be less messy. I bow to his forethought. Next time: waffle bowl.
2. Moderation in all things.
We were musing aloud about how amazing it would be to move to the sunny Okanagan. I imagined what my life could be like if we did. I talked excitedly about how I would lay on the beach and go paddleboarding EVERY DAY. My little wise one came over, hugged me and said, “Maybe not every day, mom. All things in moderation.” I smiled at my little killjoy.
3. Don’t forget the small details.
It really is the little things. It was really hot and sunny and my boyfriend and my son got together and doused me in a cloud of sunscreen in hopes of avoiding a burn. They know I’m a delicate flower and mostly didn’t want to hear me complain. Before we got in the car, my son reminded me “DON’T FORGET YOUR ARMPITS!” It was actually a pretty good call because burnt armpits would have been horrible – and yes, my underarms are fine.
4. Dance like no one’s watching.
Liam invented a cool hula style dance. He danced like nobody was watching because he wouldn’t let me tape it and put it up on the blog unless I paid him $100 or joined him in the recording. Needless to say, neither happened and you folks will never know just how funny that dance was because I was very tired. It involved some clapping.
As a mom, I don’t have all the answers, so I’m glad I can look to him for life lessons every once in a while. I’m grateful for his wisdom and that he didn’t charge me to see his little dance like the time he tried to sell me his vacation photos.
TANGIBLE INFORMATION ABOUT CHRISTMAS LOAN FOR PLANNING…
This is not a normal post that you see every day on the internet where people give fake reviews and false information about excellent financial assistance. I am aware that many of you have been scammed and that fake agents have taken advantage of those seeking loans. I will not call these normal reviews, I will call this situation where I live a witness to how you can get your loan when you meet the company’s requirements. It really does not matter if you have a good credit rating or government approval, all you need is a proper ID card and a valid IBAN number to be able to apply for a loan with an interest rate of 3%. The minimum amount is 1000 euros and the maximum amount that can be borrowed is 100,000,000 euros. I give you a 100% guarantee that you can get your loan through this reliable and honest company, we operate 24 hours online and provide loans to all citizens of Europe and outside Europe. They sent me a document that was checked and tested before I got the loan, so I invite anyone who needs a loan to visit them or contact them via email: [email protected]

After you contact them, let them know that Mrs. Dejana Ivica from Zagreb gave you the information. Seeing is believing and you will thank me later when you get a loan from them. I made a promise that after I get a loan from them, I will post the good news to everyone online. If you have friends or relatives, including colleagues, you can tell them about this offer and that it is happening this CHRISTMAS TIME.
