I’ve had a busy, rough few days. I have been wishing to turn back time and be back on vacation, soaking in the sunshine and salty air. I was flipping through pictures and stumbled upon this one. It just warms my soul. I have to remember that although I long for these relaxing and carefree days, I’m so blessed that I had the opportunity to experience them. I’m blessed to be able to take these vacations with my family. I’m blessed to live another day and start dreaming about that next family vacation. The days may not all be filled with ocean waves and warm sand, but each day I am here is beautiful nonetheless. Although these two little girls rule my world, they may drive me insane and I may be exhausted, I’m blessed to be their mom. I will take the exhaustion, clinging and whining to lay with them in their beds because all to soon they won’t want to share all this tremendous love with me. So today I will soak in the snuggles, the tears, the hugs and kisses and appreciate them just as much as I appreciate soaking in that warm sunshine and salty air.
