A declaration is being made today that I'm going to actively try to "be here now". Being Type A is exhausting, and I simply don't have time to be exhausted!

On Hurrying Up
Wow wow wow, this piece in the Huffington Post is really powerful. With what seems like a never ending To Do list, I'm constantly in a hurry. I've even found myself willing Hudson to drink his bottle faster so that I can get started on the next task I have to accomplish. It now occurs to me that someday I'll be wishing I had these quiet moments with them back. Moments when all that matters in the world are my child and his bottle. If I'm honest with myself and slow down long enough to enjoy these small moments while they last, I'll certainly realize that they are vastly more important than replying to every email in my inbox, finishing the laundry, or organizing the closets.
