A Good Reminder

I read this last week and thought I should pass it along.

you will never have this day
with your children again.
tomorrow, they'll be a little
older than they were today.
this day is a gift.
breathe and notice.
smell and touch them;
study their faces
and little feet and pay attention.
RELISH THE CHARMS
OF THE PRESENT.
enjoy today, mama,
it will be over before you know it.

There are days that I love more than anything. There are also days that I wish away. My life for the most part feels repetitive. I  have come to the conclusion that I am okay with that. Even if it means changing lots of poopy diapers(Hadley never disappoints) or telling him to leave our dogs alone or not to jump on the couch a bazillion times each day. Today will be over before I know it, I MUST choose to enjoy every moment!
