Hey you, look up!

“Sometimes a break from your routine is the very thing you need” Anonymous

I pulled this quote out of one of my mom’s scrapbooks. I thought it paired nicely with this photo I took. I totally understand how easy it is to get preoccupied with your day to day activities…getting the kids off to school, getting to work on time, picking the kids back up from school, shuffling them off to activities, making dinner, cleaning the house and on and on and on and it doesn’t end! I hate to complain because I know how fast these days fly by and one day they will be all grown up and on their own! But, today I went on a walk with my daughter and as we were walking and talking I decided to look up at the sky, I watched the birds flying around and I listened to the sounds around me. I feel like I am always looking down or forward but rarely do I just look up. Try it out! Listen to the birds chirping. Look at the clouds moving swiftly in the sky. Take a deep breath and slowly exhale. If you have a moment this week…take a break from your routine and look up!
