A Mommy Moment

I just had a "moment" with Brooklyn. One of those moments that I think I will cherish in 20 years when she is out on her own and I am missing my girls being at home. Emma was taking a nap, so it was quiet time for Brooklyn and me. I fed her and she fell asleep while she was eating. I took that opportunity to close my eyes too and rest for a few minutes. She stirred and opened her eyes and immediately smiled. She laid so still and listened to me talk to her and play with her perfect little toes. Maybe it was particularly special today because my heart is hurting for a special person in my life. My aching heart has made me really cherish my time with my girls today. I take them for granted way to often. They are truly miracles from God.

I love those moments! I love it when they are so little and YOU are the center of thier world. I hope that's how God looks at us. Unfortunatley, I think we act more like that 2 year old that's throwing a fit all day! I cherish these moments becasue I know they end way too soon.
