Perfect Moments

These are moments that are few and far between. I treasure each one and hang onto it until the next.

I woke this morning to the crisp air of the new fall day. The windows had been left open, it was chilly but not cold. A good chilly, the kind that gives you energy. My two boys soon followed me ( age 7 and 4 ). I never no quite what side of the fence they will be on and if they will be there together!!!! They quickly started playing cars...... no requests or demands. A perfect time for fresh coffee. I watched like a fly on the wall as I sipped my coffee. The breeze was so fresh. It is the smell of hope I believe. I tried to talk to the boys , but I was invisible. A good kind of invisible mom..... the kind that lets you treasure the moment of little boys and matchbox cars.

My perfect moment lasted for 60 min., and then life kind of took over. It was enough for the day..... and maybe enough for tomorrow too.

Enjoy your perfect moments!

why are we all in a hurry????

Did you ever notice that everyone is in such a hurry??? I am guilty as well, I just wish I knew sometimes why. We drive fast, we need info fast, we need to be the first everywhere.... and don't you just love the commercials where someones tries to buy with cash, slowing the world down and is looked at harshly!!!!!


I do wish everyday for more minutes in the hour but I want them for selfish reasons. I want them so that time does not slip away...... I want more time with my kids and more time to just sit and breathe. I do not mind being second in line or driving under the speed limit . I just want to stand still and not fear that the world will keep spinning.

I wish I may , I wish I might ...... have this wish , I wish tonight.

Have a great weekend!

The first day

Well, it is done. My first impression is now made. It is amazing how things get easier once that first step is completed. We have the thoughts ..... it is just hard to initiate action.

My wonder is where will this road take me.........
