Living In Awe

Hello all,

It has been a little while since my last post... I guess baby number three has taken more of my time than anticipated! I must say, I am loving every minute! And I can honestly say that she has given me so much more to be grateful for ~ which is the basis of today's post!

Have you ever noticed that a child will suddenly start laughing for no apparent reason at all? That they almost always have to skip or run where they’re going instead of walking? Or that they jump out of bed first thing in the morning already excited about their day?

Why do they do it? Because they stand in absolutely AMAZEMENT of it all.

I want to be like that again. And I’ve taken steps toward that life by consciously seeing how incredible everything in my life is. I don’t just mean the big things.

For instance, I love hearing my girls come into my room every morning and feeling their kiss (that has to be the best alarm clock in the world!)
I love seeing them play and laugh everyday.
I love walking with my family on a sunny day, and picking flowers with the girls.
I love enjoying dinner out with Mark... and spending much of the time talking about our wonderful kids!
I love cheese while sipping red wine.
I love a nice cocktail!
I love watching Alana and Livia eating a mint slice... biting all the way around the edge of the biscuit first.
I love watching Livia peel the skin off banana - in rings, the only way she will eat them.
I love seeing Alana paint her nails with a big smile on her face.
I love seeing Elise wake with smile and giggles.
I love how Elise is now snuggling and starting to give me big kisses.
I love sitting in the backyard watching Mark and the girls play on the trampoline or jumping castle.
I love watching a good movie with Mark and losing ourselves in it for 90-120 minutes.
I love that I can be at home with them each and every day.
I love our daughters with all my heart and am so blessed to have been chosen to be their mother.
I love Mark, everything about him and that I can be married to my best friend.
I love having great food each day.
I love having great friends and having people in my life to look up to.
I love that I can work towards making myself better every day.
I love being at the beach, and feeling the sand in my toes.
I love seeing how big the girls are growing.
I love holidaying at luxurious destinations around the world with my family.
I love that you are reading this post!

.... I feel I could go on all day. I encourage you to make a similar list of all the things you love and make a decision to look at each day in awe. You will see how it really is the little things you are blessed with make you the happiest! What an amzing day!!

Living in today in awe!
