It's the little things that are BIG things

I had a great, great weekend.  We didn't "do" anything like go to an amusement park or go on vacation.  We stayed at home, the weather was bad so the boys had to stay at home. 

As a family, we watched movies - together!  My older son is really into Taekwondo and the next level is to get his black belt.  We watched Karate Kid and both of my sons loved it.  I'd seen it years ago bu****ching it again and with them was very special.  We watched another movie about an Olympic skier that was paralyzed (part 1 and part 2 of the movie) and reinvented herself and created a wonderful life for herself.  We watched a couple of others.  Being together and watching the inspirational movies that we did was a very special thing for me.  My heart is so full!!

Interesting thing - sometimes the unstructured time of the weekends are difficult with food choices.  However, being together with my family as we were created no head hunger.  Hmmm!  Not that I needed validation that I am an emotional (usually bored) eater, this weekend showed me a lot.  We spend lots of time together but usually running errands, doing things, but it was different this weekend.  I loved it!!
