Just a minute....

Obviously, I tell my son "just a minute" to much for his liking. Tonight he was pleading, "mom, will you come play baseball with me and no more 'just a minutes' ". A lot of times when the kids ask me to do something I do respond with 'just a minute' and then I keep doing what I was doing until they call again. Something I need to work on. What could I possibly be doing that is more important than playing baseball with my son? So from now on I am going to stop and think before I respond 'just a minute' when I have children that are desparately begging for my time and attention.
