This Magic Moment


It seems I spend a lot of time during the day worrying, fretting, stressing, and rushing. I try to remind myself to live in this moment. I make a gratitude list in my mind. I realize how blessed we are. And then just as quickly, I forget and grouse about something, that in the grand scheme of things, is silly.

Then there are moments like right.this.minute. I'm lying here with Mike, Ben, and Rex. We've been crawling in bed together every night this week and talking, playing, and laughing. Ben's bedtime is 9 p.m., but I've had such a hard time cutting this time short. There is so much love and laughter, so much joy and comfort.

Ben can always sleep in tomorrow. Tonight is our time. And it is precious and priceless.
