Meditations.............

While we were at Riverfest yesterday, we ran into Noah's 2nd grade teacher. She pulled me aside and said she had a funny story for me. She then asked me if I ever do yoga. I said yes and wondered where this could be going. Last week at school, the kids took the Terra Nova standardized tests all week. As they were getting ready to take one of the tests, the kids were really squirrelly and wound up. She told them all to just calm down and relax. She then looked over at Noah who had his legs folded up in yoga position, had his hands by his side holding his two fingers together, eyes closed, and was taking deep breaths. She said she didn't say anything to him but she was cracking up. I was dying laughing just picturing Noah sitting there looking for his happy place. I joked that we have become really New Agey at our house. In reality, we have Wii Fit and one of the workouts on there that he loves is the yoga so I'm sure that's where it came from. I just love that kid, he can always make me smile. It's also nice that I've known his teacher most of my life so she knows my family!

Too Cute....I know there are times at work I should do the same...it would be nice to find my happy place. Maybe I should get my Wii Fit back out and put it to good use.
