Wow.

Really? I am so dreadfully behind with my blogging, I actually had to stop and think a minute about how to sign in to blogger. Oh goodness. I have so much "big" stuff to blog about...parties, wedding, vacation, etc..."big" blog stuff that takes a lot of time to do. I hate that I am missing out on sharing "little" stuff as a result. So nevermind all that for a minute, it's late and I am definitely not going to be catching up my blog tonight :). I just want to remember today.

Life is busy. And crazy. And fun. And the lives of my little people are going by so terribly fast. I have been shifting my gears to soak more enjoyment out of each and every day. Stopping to smell the roses, you know, that kinda thing. Some of this is a result of the book I am currently reading. "The Happiness Project" - but that deserves a post or 2 or 3 of its own.

But back to today. My kids love me. They tell me and show me all the time. And lots of kisses. Today was really special to me. 2 things. I was tickling and kissing Emma while we were getting ready for naptime. I said to her "your mommy is so silly" and she said "my mommy is a good mommy!"
Also today, Connell was getting dressed and his underwear was inside out. He asked me to fix it, which I did. He proceeded to tell me, "you are a great mommy! If you had a clip, you would be on purple!" He is referring to his behavior chart. A clothespin on a color chart, and purple is the BEST!!!

I love them. They love me. I am forever grateful for these moments. Small, but HUGE at the same time.

Be looking for more posts like this. There may not always be pictures (sorry, Mom) but there are so many moments and memories I want to preserve, so I may just be documenting more like this. We'll see. But still need to catch up and share all my AWESOME pictures from the last month and a half.
