10 Things I Love Right Now

kids jan 2007 - 1

Dancing with my little girls around the family room in our jammies after breakfast.
The striking simplicity of plain white dishes.
The cool, soft cheek of my baby nestled against my neck while we rock.

Waking up in the night to a three-year-old snuggled up against my back.
Sharing a joke with my first-grader.
The cheerful chatter of little voices echoing through the house.

My Daughter, Space Cadet

Last year, when we found our little princess hanging by her hands and feet like a possum from the underside of her brother’s top bunk, and swinging on doorknobs all over the house, we decided to enroll her in gymnastics.
