enjoy the moment

so i woke up this morning and rolled over onto thomas the tank engine. thanks georgia. then i walked downstairs to see (or not to see) my floor covered in puzzle pieces and everything georgia had been collecting in a shopping bag for a week, scattered. don't forget every blanket we own and the vacuum too. thanks andrew. (he was looking for something apparently) i'm trying to take president monson's advice to heart. i'm trying to remember to enjoy the moment. my kids are just making it difficult! eric (in agreement with our prophet) says that's the point, enjoy the messes, enjoy thomas the tank engine in your ribs in the morning, and don't be too hasty to wipe orange chip fingerprints off of everything. hmmm. this may take a while to get used to but these kids of mine are so dang cute, especially when they are snug in their beds fast asleep, i think i'll try it out.

here's my first try:

i'm thankful to be a mom

i'm thankful my almost 6 year old still let me snuggle him today

i'm loving that my little girl sings "annie" on call and makes everyone giggle

and i guess i love some of the mess because that means they're having a fabulous time
