Rambelings of a mother - This is Life

Last Friday we had the most beautiful weather, sunny and 80! After a long winter, a day like that is a welcome change. As soon as kids were home from school they were outside playing, using the hose, hula hooping, jumping around like bunnies. I was sitting on our front porch on the steps watching life unfold. All the neighbors were out, cleaning their yards and cars, chatting with each other, welcoming this beautiful weather. My husband was out chatting with some neighbors we had not seen all winter since everyone is cooped up in their houses during the Winter months. And I realized this is Life, this mundane moment is what Life is about. Yes the milestones and adventures are great but these peaceful moments are what life is about, the foundation of it all. Perfect harmony. Stop and enjoy it sometimes. Our lives are so fast paced and we are always thinking about tomorrow we forget to live in today.  Just some thoughts on a grey and dreary Monday morning.
