For going on fifteen years, when I wake up my daughters in the morning I say, βyouβre so preciousβ before saying βI love you.β Just said it this morning and will tomorrow too. π
Relatable, the holiday season used to wipe me out completely. It used to be days and days in a row of gatherings and I would wonder why I was feeling so exhausted. I know better now and, like you, I space out my social interactions to a level where I can actually enjoy them. I see it this way: by spacing them out I can actually be present for other people as well, I can actually be there for them.
βThis year Iβm trying something different.
We are having Thanksgiving dinner, just the two of us.β
Tending to yourself, Teri.
Beautiful. β€οΈ
Tending. That word will always be more precious to me now.
Me too. β€οΈ. And I love the word precious.
