You receive so much clarity in your laundry room... it's just amazing! What a beautiful thought…. and something to reflect on most especially with the beginning of Advent right around the corner.

This time of year (surprisingly) is easier for me. I love the fall weather, and take the time to enjoy every minute of it. I have begun realizing how fast my six year old is growing, and my youngest is in full force behind her. I am learning to slow down and enjoy every day.

When our last was born our world suddenly was turned upside down. We've learned to right ourselves since, but our priorities have all changed. Isn’t it amazing what our children can teach us?

This is something I struggle with constantly, not just with my son, but with myself and my life. "I can't wait until we move, I can't wait until we have a bigger house, I can't wait until Dylan is walking, etc" And yet, I know that this day, this moment is all that is certain, and that I should just be enjoying it.

The ability to enjoy today, just because, is a valuable skill. Thanks for reminding me again! Today, I will live in the moment!

My oldest just turned 6 yesterday and it seems as if only yesterday I was holding her in the hospital and yet "tomorrow" I'll be sending her off into adulthood! How I wish time would stand still!
