the little things

It was one of those nights. As I watched each hour tick away, I became more frustrated that my mind wouldn’t stop racing. I began to dwell on the irritating moments of my day, and let my aggravation take over, until God intervened. I suddenly realized how often I overlook those harder to notice moments that remind us why life is worth living. As a result, I decided I would make a more conscious effort to seek out the moments of joy in each day. Perhaps it will inspire you to do the same.

"Hinds' Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard
students working quietly when my principal decided to stop in - perfect timing!
successful first day of centers
all families making an appearance at back to school night, listening as students gave tours of our classroom
2nd grade faces scrolling on the screen
positive feedback from students' parents, just what I needed after a day of feeling weary and "not good enough"
coming home to dinner and tomorrow's lunch made by my loving hubby
a recent dessert favorite - mixing up a shake!
