This weekend can be simple. It truly can be. Call in sick. Don’t show up. Forget to go to that thing you were expecting to go to and say you’re sorry later. It’s better than saying sorry to the kids because of yet another weekend that rushed past without a fun moment in it — like sleeping in. Do the minimal for everyone but you and the ones you love.
Rather than rush, rush, rush let’s find ways to show love to our own family. Here are some links that inspired me this week.
Here are 10 easy and inexpensive ways to show love to your child from Little Wonders Days.
And here are 10 more easy and inexpensive ways to show love to your child from the same. Always good reminders.
Here are 4 more ideas for family night, too from a cute little blog title that’s new to me. I love the indoor snowball fight idea and will definitely be adding that to our list to do.
And, if this post isn’t enough, go to The Wise One and she’ll really explain it best.
Happy Weekend!

I was absolutely giddy to receive my first post from Awesomely Awake! And you did not disappoint! This post led me to some of the most precious blogs out there and GREAT ideas for this weekend! THANK YOU! I will be sharing this tomorrow on my Hands Free Revolution FB page so lots of people can “call in sick,” this weekend, too! I can only image the lasting memories we are all going to make!
Thank you for including my post in your great list of ways to unplug and engage more with the family this weekend. Now that I have discovered your blog, I’ll be checking back frequently.
Nice to meet you and have a fun and love-filled weekend with you family.
Thank you, Sue! I LOVE your blog title. Such a sweet concept. Also, I love chocolate cake and so do my girls.
