{GRATEFUL}

When I went to unload the dish washer, I found this. I guess one of the kids thought their play tool needed a good wash.


These are the MOMENTS that make me smile. The moments that remind me I'm a MOM. Whether it's a binky found in the fridge, a barbie left in the pantry, princess dress ups scattered all through the house, or fruit snack wrappers shoved underneath the couch cushions...they are all small reminders of the two little ones who are the HEART of this home, the kids that we have been trusted with and adore. These messes that I complain about every day are the messes I'm going to miss when they are grown and gone. So today I am GRATEFUL for the messes...and the little people in my life who continue to make them.
