small catch-up

I've been writing more of the day to day snippets on Facebook, but as I've started to write more there, my heart is yearning to write even more and get back to a journaling habit.

The little moments of life and the things the children are saying and doing, continue to be my favorite - and yet I do not remember with the greatest clarity even a few days after they happen.  So, in an effort not to overdo my Facebook posts all about my wonderful and charming children - and to write down the sweet (and often times trying) moments in life...I'm going to attempt coming back to blog :)

Such as two days ago I was out running errands, Emilia had a messy diaper so we went into the restroom to change her - only I discovered that they did not have a changing table.  I laid her on the counter between the two sinks, which was a tight squeeze!  She was not thrilled with this arrangement, and kept trying to get up and would move her arms back - flailing them outwards like a bird in flight.  As she put them back, they actually triggered the sensors under the faucet to turn on the water and the water splashed onto her hands - and she pulled them back in with big round eyes and an "Ohhhhh!" as she was so surprised!

Sometimes the little things in our day to day activities are really the big things that I want to remember.  I love each stage that the children are in for a variety of reasons - they aren't always a perfect stage - we have a lot of bumps along the road of growing up, however they do bring darling comments, things that the children do and a view of who they are!  I need to remember to journal more!
