It's the little things



*Watching this little thing.

*Reaching the age where the 'contents' of cloth diapers now fall into the toilet, instead of needing external force*

*Watching a first step.

*Knowing that your youngest beat your oldest in the race to walk earliest. Naomi holds the record at 8m, 21d. Oceana walked at 8m, 28d (2 days before 9 months)

*Pulling boxes out of the attic and asking Oceana whose clothes these are. Hearing "Ja'shua's!" So glad she knows who he is, even 2 years later.

*Finding that Matt had bought 4 rubbermaid boxes for me! Organisation that stacks! Woot!

*Getting a wok for Christmas. We had one in the US, but it was left behind. We would have brought it back the last time we went, but realized that it was actually in VT, not PA as we had originally thought. So I have two - one is rotting away in storage at my grandma's though...

What about you? What are your little things today?

  5. It is the little things like:
    After 14 yrs of love lost and refound, 3 pregnancies that ended with much sadness that the forth time is the charm. And that it is ok to sit leaned back on the couch and watch the miracle inside me dance and know it is not wasting my time, it is enjoying my daughter before she is in my arms. It is knowing that sometime in the next 55 days she will be here and I will get to love her for as long as God lets me. Even if it is a short time or many many years. Lissa G txlissa@yahoo.com.
