today

Days like today remind my why this is what I've always wanted to do with my life.

Had a little moment while Lydia and Sawyer were fighting over my lap because they both wanted to snuggle with my while we watched the slideshow at Ethan's 1st grade Celebration of Learning before heading over to Garrett's class to share cupcakes for his 9th birthday.

Maybe it was because I'm so proud of how far Ethan's come this year. Or because those 9 years have flown by since Garrett was born. Or because it's hard to believe that my little Liddy will be one of those Kindergartener's in a few months. Or because it will be just me and my "baby" at home next fall.

For whatever reason, I sat there with my face buried between two little heads sharing my lap, feeling so blessed by these 4 little people.

Wouldn't trade them for the world.

I've got to remember my little moment on those days I'd trade them in for a good nap and a shower...
