Yesterday

I was driving down the road, on my way to Trader Joe's.
Brother Bear was in his seat smiling and Sadie was explaining to me how she was trying to Catch the cars with my hands, Mama! I'm pretending I can catch the cars. That's silly!

I felt strangely buoyant. Excited. I actually wondered why for a minute.

Two happy kids.
Nothing pressing to do.
Lots of books to read.
Lots of silliness to create.
Lots of projects to make.
Treats to bake.
Babies to kiss.
Worms to find.
Fun to be had.

Then I realized that I was just really happy.
I love it when that happens.

It's the little things and little ones - no matter how old they are - that bring the most joy. Love you all. Grammy
