Ordinary Miracles

So I was reading on my friend Jenn Savage's blog. She has been in somewhat of a funk this week and wrote a little about it. It has inspired me too. I feel like life is passing me by, one day at a time. Am I spending enough time with my kids? Playing Polly Pockets, Little People, and Legos? Do we make enough treats, go on bike rides together, and just enjoy each moment we have together? I'm not sure that I do that enough. I mean, there is always laundry, dishes, homework, vacuuming, and all the rest. But am I doing enough of the memory making with my family? It doesn't have to cost money. So this morning I am going to make a change. And spend more time with my sweet kids every day before I realize that they don't want to play with me, or are too busy, or can do it all by themselves. So this morning before kindergarten, I am taking my sweet girls to the duck park to feed some ducks with our loaf of stale bread that has been sitting on my counter for days with good intentions. Seize the moment! I feel so blessed in my life to have my three beautiful kids and a wonderful, supportive husband. I am healthy, well fed, I have shelter and a testimony of the gospel. My hands can clean my house, bathe my children, read them bedtime stories, and tuck them in at night. I am going to try and enjoy each moment- a miracle really- in my life. So look for the ordinary miracles in your life today!
