simple joys

Dear Self,
Don't forget:
When you and the kids all get sick, and the house is a mess, and the laundry piles up, and you are taking time off work to stay home with sick children, and then searching for daycare because your poor babysitter also got sick...



Don't forget to let go of all your worries- and instead enjoy the precious moments when they occur.  I am guessing that D. will not choose to lick his jelly off his sandwich the rest of his life- but today he did.  Today he never ate the bread- only licked off the jelly- while wearing the biggest smile.
 These are the moments I choose to remember.  This is what brings me joy.
Maybe I will try it next time!
