Mary Poppins

Today we flew our kite.... I forgot how mesmerizing it is to watch a kite catch the breeze and take flight, and then gently sway high in the sky. At times I wonder what it would be like to be a kite.

As you can tell, the owner of the kite is... Alex. :)

I love Carson's expressions, the awe and excitement of a kite in the sky!

The Simple Things

When you're at Walmart and for a brief moment you freak out because you can't see your kids. Then you turn the corner and see them giggling to each other, while cuddling with ridiculously soft, over-sized teddy bears.

When you're washing the dishes and you hear the sweet sound of laughter because your boys find it quite funny to be under the table.

When you watch your baby explore something new and fill with utmost curiosity and happiness! We just got a treadmill.

When your daughter comes running to you yelling with impatient excitement! And you see the confidence shine as she shows her new creation. A hammock.

Our life is pretty simple here. But these small and simple things leave the greatest and most long-lasting joy. These joys are what makes life worth it.
