My Children

Tonight I had an experience that put a few things back into perspective for me. We were having a rough evening. The girls were wanting to help me get dinner ready but they're not really big enough to be helpful so they were just in the way. I was getting angry. Things just kept going downhill. Then I lost something. It was small, insignificant, we could easily live without it. But R realized it mattered to me and she searched the house over trying to find it. She couldn't and she went to bed still concerned about it. It made me realize just how much my girls really are trying to help. They really want to do things right and they want everyone to be happy. I am so grateful for them and their innocence.
