“What do you want to remember about today?”
The fact that it is an ordinary, everyday kind of day. Nothing extraordinary is happening. Nothing spectacular. Nothing over the top crazy fun. It’s just a day.
And it’s worth remembering.
Remembering…
…Sawyer’s big smile and giggle when I went in to get him this morning – sitting up in his crib, gripping his monkey, bouncing up and down with excitement as Mommy wished him “Good morning!”
…Toys and blankets scattered all over the floor in the loft. Giraffes, mooses, books, balls, rattles, a “minky” blanket, the star that plays classical music when shaken… All kinds of fun to be had!
…His first glimpse of Elmo. A big smile. Suddenly interested in what it is happening on the TV.
…The drool-y, messy, open-mouthed kisses that have begun.
…Walking away to change the laundry, and peeking back to see Sawyer crawling towards things that are off-limits – with a grin on his face. Oh boy!
…Watching the dog sprawl on the blankets, til the little boy make a beeline for her.
…The hubby coming home for a quick lunch break – with kisses for both of us.
…Sawyer giggling with black beans, sweet potatoes, and cereal in his mouth – and oozing out… What a mess!
…The fragrance of clean laundry.
…The warm taste of fresh coffee in the morning.
…Catching a glimpse of this:
…The feeling that life is good. I’m where I’m supposed to be. I’m loved – and have so much to love in return.
What is worth remembering about your day?
