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.

my husband feeling better
filling the bucket with marbles!
enjoying an hour outside at a soccer game, soaking up the day's last rays of sunshine
struck by the beauty of God's autumn creation (there was a reason the light turned red in my hurry to work this morning!)
teachers offering to help so I can prepare for the wedding
packing our bags for Indiana, printing boarding passes
looking forward to a weekend of celebration with family & friends
... more to come after A&A have tied the knot!

living close enough to my home-away-from-home that I can stop in even for a quick 10 minutes
paper-clipped copies
parent playground volunteers
warm, homemade soup on a cool day
escaping into the world of photoshop, a break from my "day job"
an extra blanket on the bed
