To Life!!!

My kids just put such a smile on my face!!

Today, Claire was being particularly stubborn. I had pretty much given up on the fight, but instead of letting it go, Ben took matters into his own hands. He went to Claire and talked to her quietly for a few minutes, and in just a short time the two of them had finished what I asked them to do!

It's little things like this that remind me just how precious my children are. The lessons that I learn from them every day are just amazing! I cannot believe sometimes how much I love them. They remind me that the little things in life are important, too. Some of the best moments with my kids are when I stop what I'm doing, and go to them to do something as simple as fix a toy that fell apart, help them win a game, build a paper airplane, talk them out of a stressful situation, or take them on a bike ride.

It's such a simple little thing to me, but to them it's an important moment in time when they got help from someone who loves them. I hope these moments never end- they're what makes my world go round!!

To life!!
