Weekly Photo Challenge: From Above

 Weekly Photo Challenge: From AboveJane in sandboxBecause it’s the little things that make life great and because it’s the little things I forget, here are a few little things I’d like to remember from today:

Jane: (16 months, pictured above) Told me “Thank You” after I changed her dirty diaper.

Clara: (3 years) Ran out the front door, fell down the two steps off the porch into the front garden, rolled to her feet and came up smiling and waving at the neighbor who was driving by on his tractor.

Ivy: (6 years) Came home from school with a math homework sheet she had made for me to work on because it would be “good practice for my brain” and then I could be as smart as her.

    I love the way you right about simple memories, I also have 3 kids and these moments are powerful enough to bring everyday a smile on our face. I should focus more on them, when I get tired of the rest. example after sleepless night or a mess made of toys and books all around.

    Today My son 2 years old made a blood test (for allergy check) he was very courageous, and just said I don’t like a hole on my arm, remained courageous and at the end, when he received candies ask for more to share with his 2 sisters and his father. I though that was supper sweet.

    My daughters 5 years old, played with our elderly neighbor for an hour sunday, nice for both , and my 8 years old told me yesterday that she loved to see me smile (which I do most of time, but I had a small tiredness deep yesterday afternoon).

  3. moments as lovely as the photo.
