A Quiet Moment


Today, in all the craziness of life, I let Alan play in the family room while I fixed dinner. I listened to him pull things out of his toy box and drop them on the floor. I had the overwhelming feeling to go and peek around the corner at him. I didn't want to disturb him. I just stood and watched him and thought what a beautiful blessing I have. I am so grateful for his pure, sweet, innocent, little spirit. He is such a joy to us. He turned in my direction and caught a glimpse of me. He gave me the most wonderful smile. I felt so loved and my heart still is so full. I don't ever think I could tell my Heavenly Father "Thank you" enough.

Don't you just love moments like that. Not a day goes by that I don't have a moment where I feel total happiness and love for my children. {Usually ends quickly after one knocks two in the head or visa versa} but I feel it too! Love you and baby boy!
