\"Joanna<\/p>\n

This weekend, my sister<\/a> and I were laughing about those parenting moments when the world is coming down around you \u2014\u00a0babies crying on a plane, teens slamming the ol\u2019 bedroom door \u2014\u00a0and thus how magical it is when you then experience a parenting moment that IS just how you pictured \u2014\u00a0say, hearing a toddler\u2019s first word or chatting about middle-school crushes at bedtime.<\/p>\n

One of my pinch-yourself parenting moments: The boys and I were playing hide-and-seek at our neighborhood playground, and we\u2019d already tried out all the obvious hiding spots (behind a big tree, in the bushes, etc). So! I decided to hide where they\u2019d never<\/em> look: in a group of parents standing right there. I walked up to the adults and said, \u201cHi! I\u2019m hiding from my kids, so can I join your conversation?\u201d They laughed and took me right in. When the boys finished counting and began searching for me, they looked everywhere \u2014\u00a0behind benches, under slides \u2014\u00a0except<\/em> at the grown-ups standing there chatting about whatever stuff grown-ups chat about! I could not stop laughing, hiding in plain sight.<\/p>\n

What about you? Please share a time when you were like, This is the stuff!<\/em><\/strong> (Also, Freddie\u2019s epic hiding spot as a coat rack<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

P.S. Three words that changed how I parent<\/a>, and what little things enchant your children<\/a>?<\/p>\n
