STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES

It is important, as the mother of a 2 year old, that you build into your schedule the time to stop and smell the roses.

Or pet the bugs.

Or watch the snail move along his way.

It's part of their growing and learning.

So if it takes you 10 minutes to get to school, plan it to take 15. That way, when she wants to pet bugs by the front door, or finish the song in the parking lot, or count and then recount the steps... you have the time.
