We spent Sunday at a new park and playground with a good packed lunch (Whole Foods!). The kids had a great time and I am amazed at how long my 2.5 year old is content to just swing on that swing.
However, I witnessed something that really "grinds my gears." More than a few folks were checking their Blackberries and phones when they were there. What is up with that? If you're taking the time to be with your kids, and it's the weekend, how about putting away the gadgets? I left my phone in the car - no issues.
Really, just tune out and tune in to what matters.
i hear ya! i had a great time with my daughter at the park today with my phone in the car. we were sliding down a big cement slide over + over into some sand, then playing hide + go seek.
please send me your button/badge for my father's day blogroll + enter my father's day giveaways. i started them today with a fatboy modern hammock. spread the word :)
