1. Making time first thing in the morning before the sun comes up (with my coffee, blanket & candle)for my devotional time. I love knowing that He will be there waiting for me each morning.
2. Creating a warm and cozy home for Mikey to come home to in the morning. Savi loves popping up over the dutch doors to surprise daddy! If he's home and heading work then I love getting up and seeing him off with his coffee and a kiss knowing I'll see him the next morning.
3. Loving my baby and getting on the floor with her to play and learn. I love being silly with her, singing Sesame Street, ABCs, making up songs and dancing with her, or should I say for her. She cracks up at me, I'm sure it's quite a sight if any of the neighbors hear or see us. I love seeing what is fun and entertaining to her, she's such an explorer.
4. Don't sweat the small stuff.
I have such good role models of mommies to learn from, and have gained so much wisdom from books I've read in the last few years. I try to make the most of each day and opportunity. I know the time will go by fast with my baby, and that I only have so long to cherish these moments. I love being here for her when she is upset, needs a hug, needs a partner to play with, wants me to take her somewhere, to look at the moon, to explore with, and so much more.
I guess I just love being a mom and wife, and don't want to waste time being upset about little meaningless things that come up. My sis and sis in law have taught me so much, and I love being able to now put all that knowledge and years of quietly observing into place.
God has truly blessed our marriage and home!
