Love isn't always hugs, and "I love you's". The things we LOVE about our kids, and our life, are the often messy occurrences and regular day to day moments. So here is to getting our hands dirty, and filling our hearts with messy good memories. I don't always LOVE what my kids are doing, but I LOVE that we try to turn a mess into an experience.
LOVE IS: waiting to go on a road trip
LOVE IS: Sticking our feet (or bottoms) in cold water
LOVE IS: Taking a nature hike with good friends
LOVE IS: Eating Spaghetti
LOVE IS: Being naked while eating spaghetti
LOVE IS: Foam painting on a sunny day
LOVE IS: Getting scratched in the face by your little brother
LOVE IS: Building shelves in the garage
LOVE IS: Finger painting
LOVE IS: Standing on chairs and spilling apple juice on the floor
LOVE IS: Pajama snuggles by the trash can
LOVE IS: Napping with your brother on the couch
When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses. ~Joyce Brothers
