Day 196-Take Time To Smell The Roses

As we RAN into Safeway today to grab some much NEEDED groceries... I knew that we had less than 10 minutes to complete our shopping. So I grabbed a cart and sped off towards the first isle-with Tate following a short pace behind me. "Hurry, Hurry, Hurry", was all that I had on my mind. I looked back to make sure that Tate was still with me, and sure enough he was gone. So I backtracked and found him by the fresh flowers. When I got there he said, "I wanted to smell ALL the roses". At that moment I realized that Tate was right... Life is just too short to ALWAYS be rushing. Just leave it to my sweet son to teach me the importance of stopping and taking the time to smell the roses.
