Oh my gosh, it's the simple things that get us through this roller coaster called life. My 7 month old sitting on a blanket in the grass and being completely amazed with nature. My four year old dancing like a mad woman, singing her little made up songs. A starbucks caramel frappucino on those insanely stressful days. A full moon and cool breeze on a gorgeous night. A good run on a back trail through the woods. Wild Horses by The Rolling Stones (and a smart friend who catches things I miss ;)). Watching my girls hug and love on each other. Lily's laughter. Camille's kisses and words of encouragement...it may seem small but "I love you Momma" can carry you through the hardest of times. A stranger telling me how beautiful my little family is. A meaningful message from Pastor Fred that touches a place you didn't even realize needed touching. It's amazing how these seemingly insignificant things are what drive us. I'm just so thankful each and every day for having so many blessings, so many "little" things. Life is such an amazing gift...and I feel so incredibly fortunate to be able to say, in the middle of the biggest trial of my life, how grateful I am for every minute of every day. LIFE IS GOOD. So, so good.
