The Lotus Pond

Slowing Down to a Snail’s Pace

I’m not the most relaxed person in the world. I like to get things done rather than doddle along. I don’t spend a lot of time standing around thinking about how to do something, nor do I stop to smell the roses along the way. I want my errands done and all my tasks taken care of so I can get back to my book or my stitching. But, having a preschooler to shepherd around all the time is making me slow down and notice things.

Funny how pests can be so pretty.
