Tonight is all about spreading the word of finding your "stop and wonder". Those moments in life where you slow down and really take in the beauty for what it is. Whether your "stop and wonder" is alone, with your dog, child, partner or a parent, it is key to maintaining balance. Life moves at such a fast pace and we often forget how quickly it can all be taken away, so slow down and enjoy!
Personally, this weekends #mystopandwonder moments were standing at Barrier Lake lookout with my family breathing in the fresh mountain air and spending 15 minutes with Ryder pedaling our bikes in the backyard and taking a moment to lie down and watch the clouds before he was off to bed. While I was lying there with him I was reminded about the importance of truly connecting with your kids. Its so easy to always be thinking about the future, and uncommon for our minds to be truly present. I think our kids crave our attention, they need us to put our phones down, forget about whats for dinner or the appointment you need to book tomorrow and get down on their level and just be present.
I encourage all of you to let go of the hustle and bustle we all get trapped in and discover those "stop and wonder" moments this week. #mystopandwonder
