I am watching my amazing husband hold our sweet daughter as they both sleep on the couch. The house is quiet and for this moment, all is well with the world. I never want to forget moments like this. Since Addi has been born, I have learned to appreciate the "little" moments more. The word "little" is used loosely because in my book, the little moments are the most important moments of our lives. The moments where I look up to the sky and thank Jesus for another day, where I kiss Jared good-bye before we depart for the day, make a goofy face at Addi just to see her smile, talk on the phone with a family member or friend, hold the door for a perfect stranger, smile at my co-worker in a way that says, "Hey...I know it's crazy here, but it's OK", utter a prayer for someone else, or just simply stop and reflect on the day.
Jared and I are filling our lives with little moments with Addi. We don't want to miss a thing. She is such a joy and aside from the time we share with God and with each other, the little moments with her are the most precious moments of our day.
