Ordinary Moments

The past couple days have been so special. Nothing significant has happened, yet, I've found myself so happy and in love with such simple, ordinary moments.

A family day including a nice long walk in the neighborhood.

Continuing to sing along to the lullaby cd and rock my snuggly sleeping baby just because I'm in awe as I run my fingers through his hair and stare at every feature of his little face. 

A relaxing bath. Followed by a dance party in bed after midnight when all of us should be asleep. Then less than half an hour later, laying in bed listening to some of my favorite "old school" (eagles, fleetwood mac, james taylor, etc) music.

Aimlessly walking around hobby lobby just to browse and have a little smile so contently staring up and giggling at me the entire time. 

A lunch date in the middle of a long day of studying for the husband.

Watching little eyes discover and follow the shadows of hands and fingers dancing upon the wall.

Tickles and belly laughs. Sleepy-time cuddles.  

I'm so thankful and feel a happiness deep within my soul. It's as though these moments of being a mom were always meant to be. This feeling is better than I could have ever imagined.
