Mind, Body, Soul

I met with one of my wise friends today. While she was discussing her children’s extramural activities, I commented that they were involved in such varied activities.  She told me that in her house she has a rule for extramural involvement.  They have to participate in:
  • One activity for the body
  • One activity for the mind and
  • One activity for the soul.

I really think that these are wise words not only for children but for everyone both young and old.  It is a wonderfully healthy way to live, so I’ve decided that my goal for 2012 is to set about making time for 3 different activities that fulfill my mind, body and soul to be completed during my free / leisure time.  Once I have decided what I plan to do I will write a follow up post.

We painted today and well lets just say seconds after this photo was taken disaster struck.  Needing to pee (ie Grace waited too long to tell me – waayy to much fun to go until it’s too late) with hands like that resulted in paint on my dress, her dress, the potty and who knows where else.  Only solution to dump her in the bath.  I can’t say I was a particularly happy mommy
