I love it when....

I love it when I get to spend the whole day with my family without all the extra stuff.  No outside influences, no TV, no running around, no work, no worries of a schedule, the list could go on.

I cherish my Sundays and the beautiful day that it is and the wonderful times I have with my family.  I am grateful for the knowledge that my family can be together forever and I am grateful for the journey we share as we try to reach that goal.

I love it when....

I find myself frequently saying to myself, "I love it when...".  I am going to try to document those "love it" moments as best I can....so I wont forget the joy in the journey!

"I love it when I am in the other room and Josh is all by himself and he is singing a song that he has made up all by himself.  He likes to be on his own a lot and when he is he is really good at entertaining himself wonderfully.

"I love it when I can see my children set a hard goal and watch them do all that they need to and have to to be able to accomplish it.  At the beginning of this new school year Megan came to me and said that she wanted to run for student council.  I had to take a deep breath and I have to admit I was not too excited about it.

I was so amazed at how hard she worked.  She had to do 8 hours of service, 4 at home, 4 at school, she had to make 2 posters and she had to stand in front of the school, grades 4-6 and preform.  She was amazing ( will post more on that later) .  There were 30 kids that ran and only 12 spots to fill.  After 24 hours of a very long wait, she called me from school and in her sweet soft voice she told me she made it!!  I love being able to share those moments with my kids!!
