I haven't sat down & written in a while now..life's been busy! It's slowing down a little now (that meaning outside the home stuff, there's always stuff that could be done at home!) at least before all the Christmas activities start, but who's ready to think about all that:)
Sometimes our lives can be so busy with things to do & places to go, but I think most of us don't want to miss out on those little things in life.
 Like  the phrase "life is what happens when you are waiting for life to happen"or something like that;) I think about that a lot. Maybe because of different situations we have already faced or maybe just getting older year by year and realizing how fast it continually keeps  going. If you are like me at all anyway once I hit 19 ,20 it just hasn't slowed down since! Mark & I had our 8'th wedding anniversary a couple weeks ago, that seems crazy along with us having had 4 babies and both getting scary close to 30 makes us realize it's going to keep moving. We both have high hopes & dreams that may or may not  happen, yet and we plan & work towards them, but while that's happening our birthdays keep coming, our kids keep growing & our chance to make a difference in this one life time here on earth keep's getting smaller as time passes.
There are  just a few little things I try to stop and enjoy through my day, even if it's something that seems minor to other people, but it might help  to slow me down, or take a moment and enjoy it, I need the reminders to enjoy the little things maybe you did too:)
One of my favorite things every morning are when my kids come walking out of their bedrooms/into the kitchen, usually still sleepy, rubbing their eyes but Always dragging their blankies behind them..every morning without fail, it makes me smile.
What makes you smile through the day?:)
