There is nothing like seeing your kids smile. Nothing. I do not care what has gone on in the day, what they have done, what someone else has done to me, how bad I am feeling or what the troubles are in my household...when my girls smile all of it melts away.
There is something so precious in their innocence. You can see it in their eyes, you can sense it in the very start of the crinkle of their smile. It doesn't take much to make them happy...it's the small things in life. I guess what I love the most with my girls is that when you say the word "outside" they explode with glee! You would think that they have literally won the lottery. Their favorite thing to do in the world is to simply swing!
Do you remember being a kid and seeing the swings on the playground? They were my favorite! That feeling of being free and soaring higher and higher with the wind in my face and no cares in the world. I love watching my girls experience that same joy! Bug smiles her biggest smiles when you pull her forward and say, "Ready"! Nothing could capture the cuteness of Doo screaming "wee" as she sways back and forth with a big goofy grin on her face!
Oh to be little again...living the simple life. I think I am getting the best of it now...watching the two people who mean more to me than I could ever convey and seeing their smiles ignite a love in me that can't be explained in words! Oh how divine they are!
Much love,
