True Joy

Every once in a while, there are moments when I am doing seemingly nothing with my family and I am suddenly hit with the thought of what a blessed life I have.  Happiness and love rush through me and fill my entire body.  I sometimes have to remind myself to exhale and begin breathing again.  As I was folding clothes in Max’s room recently, I looked up at my boys giggling and playing and had one of these experiences.  I was also sad at the thought that this special time in their lives will be gone so quickly.  Not satisfied with merely watching, I stopped my chores and joined them, taking in every ounce of beauty and joy.  And of course, I snapped a few pictures to always remember that day, the fun we had, and the feelings I experienced in Max’s room on a Sunday afternoon in June.  Here are two of my favorites.
