My Son

This guest post from Hong Alexander

My kids are always running in and out of the house. With young children it seems the doors are opening and closing. My son loves to go outside and play in the woods. I have never timed it, but it seems every five minutes he comes in to 'check-in' with mom! He will fly through the back door and run to the kitchen or whatever room I am in just to tell me his adventure story. I love that he goes out and explores, but it is clear that he still needs to check-in for some security. It is easy to get aggravated when I find the front door open for the tenth time in one day, but I know he won't always be my ten year old running in to show me what he found and I want to cherish these moments. It helped when we got Total Alarm Systems installed and I could hear when a dohome security michigan or was opened in our home. This helps me to share in my son's adventures without griping to him to shut the door!
