A week ago Monday, I had one of the best days in a long time. It didn't even take the whole day...it was just a small portion of the day...but, it made it the best day. The activity was really quite simple, not something that may seem earth-shattering to you. What was it, you ask? Well, after dinner I simply spent time wrestling with my boys on the floor of the family room...rolling around together, letting them get out all that "manly" energy, allowing them to pin me down (that's right...I said "allow" them), laughing together, and just plain being silly and crazy! It was worth it to see their faces and especially to see my wife's face. There was a relaxing sense afterwards that this is what life should be about. No rushed schedule, just some moments alone as a family...spending time just having fun together and showing each other how important they are to us.
Life does get busy...but, as a Dad, I need to take those moments and enjoy them. And then, build in more opportunities to make them happen again and again and again.
