Day 10: Enjoying Average Days

Today has been glorious. 

In most ways, it was a typical and ordinary routine.

But it was the kind of ordinary that compelled me to think, "Can my life really be this great?"

There were so many special moments that a passerby would deem unremarkable...

but for me, 

they were the moments I inhaled deeply.

I will forever savor the contentment I felt this morning while I followed my kids around watching them play.

I just want my kids to freeze and stop growing!

Here is Mr. William in his Car-hart overalls, helping Dad fix a truck:

 In the picture below, I love how concentrated he looks, with those chunky little cheeks!

He's just drivin'

 Meanwhile, the older kids were having a "picnic" and coloring:

John gave Johnny some M&M's...he thought it was so cool

 But he shared!

Johnny spilled the M&M's on the ground so he could get an easier access to the blue ones...this really threw Caity for a loop. 

She was pretty concerned about germs, but ended up eating the red ones still, because germs apparently don't like the color red (that was a close one.)

I just love Fridays.
