Tuned in...

It is almost comical. At night, I read my parenting book of the week and think deep thoughts about how to apply the suggestions to my life. Thinking about being more mindful, more aware, more in tune, I fall asleep.

Then the kids keep me up half the night, I get through the day as best I can, and then it is bed time. Pablo goes to bed, and I breathe for the first time all day. After a while, I start thinking about the book. What was I going to focus on again? Oh yeah. Mindfulness. Being more tuned in. Oh. Oops.
