Welcome to a new month. This month’s Love the Moment Calendar combines the Easter Advent Calendar which accounts for 12 days of the challenge.
If you’re wondering what these challenges are about, you may like to read the previous posts in the series.
Love the Moment Challenge: January
Love the Moment Challenge: February
Love the Moment Challenge: March
The challenge is a flexible thing. You can do a challenge everyday, a particular day, one day of the month or make up your own. The idea is to remember the little things. Because little things: they are big things.

Blogger Loving the Moment
Jenn from It’s Not Easy Being Green wrote a post recently that captured so much of what Love the Moment means. Her post Remember Paper Dolls, is such a beautiful reminder about acknowledging little things. Often if we change our mindset, we can “see” things in a new light. Instead of finding millions of cut out dolls around the house as irritating, Jenn shares how she could see how cool it was to have such a creative daughter, as well as remembering her own childhood love of paper dolls.
Bingo! There you have the Love the Moment Challenges in a nutshell: acknowledge the little things, change your mindset and connect with your child — such a beautiful thing. Thanks Jenn!
