Stop and smell the roses

While out and about this week with the boys, we had to make a stop at the local Wally World.  While heading to the check out line Thing 1 stops and starts smelling the flowers that are setting out.  I asked him if he was stopping to smell the roses.  He looks up at me with his goofy little grin and says "Of course".

Why is it that my 7 year old knows you have to stop and smell the roses and I in my 30 year old mommy wisdom forget it on a regular basis?

I have decided to step back and look at the big picture of my life.  Basically just re-evaluate everything and make sure that anything and anyone in it are the ones that need to be there.  I like my life and want it to stay that way. 

So I shall stop and smell the roses a little more often, just because I can.
