Small Things

Today I will enjoy the small things.
I said that last night as I went to bed. Leyton woke up shortly after midnight, screaming and crying. Pooped all over both of us, twice. And, I just want you to know, I enjoyed every minute of it. There was nothing I would have rather been doing at 1am. That was a lie.

Since 1am, we have been through 4 changes of clothes.
Taken two baths.
Attempted to eat two ladybugs, one earring, and 484059 wipes.

I wouldn't trade this life for anything. The dark eyes looking up and saying "mama" make EVERYTHING worth while.
s
This verse has been on repeat in my head...
"Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10





I'm blessed. I'll say it 10000 more times on this blog. I never want to lose sight of that.
I love the people in my life.
I love the laughter that comes with being around those you love.
I love to LOVE.

As my boys first year of life is wrapping up, I'm reminded of the love that floods my heart, daily.


Not only will I soak up all the small things of today, but everyday.
I don't want to miss a beat, big or small.

BE STILL, MY SOUL.
