A Moment of Peace

Today Tom and took the kids to IKEA (if you have one nearby I highly recommend it! The prices are great and you can get a bacon, egg & pancake breakfast for around $2!) Anyway, on the way back I asked Tom to drop the kids and I off at a park near our place. We were the only ones there. It was a cool fall day, the leaves were falling off the trees and I could hear distant church bells ringing. The kids were contentedly playing in the sand and I felt my whole body relax. It truly was a moment of peace.

It's not just having those moments which is good, but recognising them :)

Kim- SO good to hear from you! Wow, and I just wrote this too. Thanks for popping by! :0) Yes, I agree that we need to stop and recognize those sweet moments!

I'm always popping by, Annie, even it I'm not always commenting. I now have a widget on my blog which tells me when you (and others) have updated :)

Kim- I feel honored that you keep tabs on my blog! I don't write as often as I'd like. It's tough to do so with 2 kids at home! ;0)
