Tonight, Amanda leaned over to me and said: "Mommy, I love you so much. So much that I could put my love in a container bigger than the Pacific Ocean." Ah, that Amanda. She's just a handful of sunshine. (Flattery will get you many places, my daughter)
Today, I am thankful for the calm I feel in my heart -
for the precious little hands that bring color and vibrance to my world -
for the surprising emergence of a hobby that constantly reminds me to release the lifesong that rises in my spirit -
for a partner who understands the cadence of my footsteps here on this Earth and willingly matches his to it, all the while remembering to dance with his two little "Cinderellas" -
Today, I am thankful.
