All the small things...

Laying in bed this morning it took every ounce of my being to pull my lazy body out of bed.  I knew it was going to be one of those days.  One of those days where all I wanted to do was stay in bed, with the covers pulled up to my chin just thinking and running through my head, half sleeping half awake.  It didn't help I had a headache.   Hearing Nevaeh playing in her crib yelling every so often to let me know she was awake and ready for the day put a smile on my face.  Thank goodness for my babies, or I would have stayed in bed.

Today was a day of enjoying the small things, I took note of many.  The multiple kisses from Nevaeh, it was almost like "no that one wasn't good enough, here is another, nope still need one more..."  It was a day of many do over kisses.  I love it!  Corey came home at lunch with a package for the girls.  I also love these.  I noticed how the parcel was signed "Love Grandma Jacquie Dzioba"  This also made me smile.  I smelt the girls many times through out the day, oh how I missed their smell (having a cold the last week I had lost that one of the five senses I didn't really think meant anything until you can't use it).  Nevaeh yawned as she came in for yet another kiss and her breath was as sweet as "breadfruit pudding"  I have no idea what breadfruit pudding smells like but I am sure it's pretty sweet.  (from one of my favorite stories).

This afternoon while nursing Maëlle, I had one of those eye locking moments.  It ended in us both smiling at each other.  Maëlle is growing and changing so quickly, I have keep enjoying these small things.  It those small things that keep me going, a lot of those moments get looked over and forgotten, thats why I am so thankful for a day of the small things.

Today was a off day for me, but my girls keep me on!
