Simple Moments

Sometimes looking at the simple things in life are what help us to realize that maybe they are not simple.  It is the simple moments that together create your day.  If we take them and enjoy them what can we see?  What are we missing or even what are we not?  We always focus on what we are missing but what if we aren't missing anything? 

FOR TODAY

May 11/12, 2010...  {I started writing yesterday evening and then mamahood took over and I never made it back to the computer to finish.}

Outside my window the wind is blowing as it has been for the last week.  What has made Mother Nature for upset?

I am thinking of the fabric that lays on the table waiting for me to turn into the long awaited dress. 

I am thankful for his love!  

From the kitchen homemade soup warms on the stove for dinner.  I am getting the broth tasting closer to Paul's Mom's.  He adds suggestions each time I make a new batch.  

I am wearing PJ's still.  I am really not a morning person.  I need coffee, time and food before being able to function in the morning.  You would think that after all our time together my little babes would know this, still they do not.  

I am creating LOTS of pottery for the Summer Shows. Check out the website for a list of where I will be this summer and fall. 

I am going to a felting workshop this weekend and I am SO EXCITED!!  A whole day with fiber!

I am reading Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffennegger.  I LOVED the Time Traveller's Wife and have read it twice and loved it more the second time.  

I am hoping to let go of her energy that is sucking up so much of me.  It is an old pattern so it will take time to create new patterns but it needs to happen for me to move forward.

I am hearing the voices inside encouraging me to do what's best for me.  

Around the house it smells clean and fresh.  We had Molly Maids come as a birthday present from my sisters in law.  It was so amazing to leave and come home to a beautiful clean home and it all happened while I sipped lattes!  

One of my favorite things to see is Sam and Lily finally playing together.  What a magical moment (sometimes it doesn't last long before one of them is crying but the moments get longer and longer)

A few plans for the rest of the week:  Sleep, teach, learn, take Sam to meet this Kindergarden teacher. Be ok. with all these things.  

Here is picture for thought I am sharing:
