Mom, Come outside...

Last night I was in the midst of getting dinner, checking emails and ebay,

getting Ally going for her Basketball game that was at 6:00 on a school

night 20 minutes away and Matthew with his coat on says Mom, come

out here come out here! I was half listening, not to mention it was

20 degrees outside...but he kept insisting. Finally, I walk out on the porch

with no coat and he points down the street to the most beautiful pinky,

orange sunset and says isn't it pretty mom? So, of course, that stopped

me in my tracks yet again. I have always done things like that, or at least

tried to at beautiful sights in nature, just to make them stop and be

aware because its so easy to miss these. We especially do this on all

of our mountain trips, thats what it reminds me of, we just don't do it

enough everyday. Leave it to the eight year old!
