Little Moments

There's a country song I love called "Little Moments"

When I was a teenager and dating, I especially loved it. 

It was one of those cuddle and snuggle with a boy songs. 

I knew every word. 

Still do. Kinda.

The best line of the song is "Yeah, I live for little moments like that." 

I know we all have Little Moments in our life. 

Here are some of my most recent:

-When my very active baby cuddles on my lap and falls asleep in my arms.

-When my husband listens quietly to an emotional outburst and then softly and tenderly reminds me of -exactly what I should be doing instead of what I am doing. 

-When I see a six year old girl, complete stranger, hang her face out the window of a car on a cold afternoon and then proceed to frantically wave with an ear to ear grin.

-When my husband surprises me with flowers, making dinner, and renting a movie because he knows I had a rough day and that I need a break.

-When my baby sits on my lap for more than 10 minutes playing a game with me.

-When my baby has giggle fits and keels over on my lap during the same game.

-When my husband comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist while I finish the dishes.

-When I see my baby happily playing in a box.

-When I hear a four year old boy say "Look, Mommy! Jesus gave us bread!"

-When my hubby says "Go get mom!" and my baby walks around the corner, across the room, and comes right to my lap with a big smile.
-When I laugh my guts out with my sister-in-law for no real good reason while everyone else looks at us like we're crazy.

-When my husband holds me and tells me everything is going to be alright.

-When I feel the sweet peace, comfort, and assurance that only comes from God, letting me know that I did something right or that I'm doing okay.

Yeah, I live for little moments like that.

Cousins. Bet ya couldn't tell.

Everyone needs a Bubs hug!

Apparently this little Dragon hates Mizzou so much he was scared of his little Tigger friend.

Nothin' like a bare baby bum.

Instead of helping, I took a picture.

I like to focus on the most important things.

"Hey mom, need a wipe?"

Chiropractoring.

And because we all know, the only thing a kid needs to be happy is a box.

(this was not posed nor the smile encouraged. he was really this happy)
