For the most part, I want to use this blog to remember what was happening specifically on these days. My husband is the greatest man ever and my kids could not be any more wonderful. The stories and experiences we have are overwhelming, so to track them by date will hopefully be effective.
I think too many people take their life for granted. Too many people get wrapped up in how much money is in the bank, or what they will be doing in 20 years. Even though it is important to be secure with finances and plan for the future, it is also important to live in the moment. It is important to appreciate what we have and what we can do in this life. Just last night, Bobby and I sat down with some chips and salsa, some wine, and a show that we both love. For a minute we both just sat there... looked at each other. Looked up the stairs and listened to our sleeping children. Looked at our food. Looked at our over-sized TV. And just thought... wow.. what did we do to deserve this? And we looked at each other and realized that we are very fortunate to have found one another. I am so thankful for what life has given me.
What is life if we just rush it past us and always look forward or behind? We have to be IN the moment and realize that what we have only lasts for a short time. When something important is happening, or even when you are just feeling down, should we not just look around and see the moment for what it is? Look for the best in things and life will be much more rewarding.
