Real Quick...
I may have mentioned this before, but I need to jot it down again for myself....
One of my favorite times of the day is just after the kids are down for the night and I go around and collect all the toys Ben missed during his clean-up/play with all the toys you've brought out during the day time. I love these few moments for three reasons:
1.)It's so quiet. Not a lonely quiet, a peaceful quiet.
2.) It reminds me of how much fun Ben's life is and how much fun my life is because of him.
3.) It's evidence that I have kids. Little bits of proof that Mark and I have been blessed in a way that many people long for.
I might complain about vacuuming (nothing has changed, mom) and mopping, but picking up toys - I think - will always be done with a little smile on my face. That's all. Just want to remember this.
