How Many More...

Sloppy kisses will we get from our children?
Naps will we take with them?
Finger prints will we wipe from the windows?
Cookies will we bake with an eager audience?
Positive pregnancy tests will we have?
Homeschool lessons will we teach?
Diapers will we change?
Noses will we wipe?
Endless answers will we answer?
Messes will we clean?
Babies will we nurse?
Cuddles will we give?
First steps will we watch?
Rocking chairs will we wear out putting dear ones to bed?

Are you in awe of it all? Of the miracles in your home? No, not the clean and folded laundry. Or the immaculate home. Not even the aromatic delight of a warm dinner on the table.

Life. The life going on inside your home between the diapers and the prayers. Where Memories are made amidst the chaos and seemingly endless laughter. Dreams are born during bath time and bedtime stories. Hearts are knit together during dinner time.

Those are the moments we should be in awe of!

How many more will we have?

Oh yes ~ at the moment I'm doing a 'fleeting moments' post each day for a week because we've come to realise how quickly this time in our lives is going. Thanks for the reminder!
Blessings
