Thanks for the little things

Like me, most people forget to give thanks for the little things. Like rather than those peaceful moments that most parents dream about well I think we need to be thankful for the noise. When a child is laughing when he throws the ball for the dog or screaming to the top of her lungs because she see's papa coming home from work. These things we tend to forget to be thankful for in our day to day, but without those noises the quiet would be just too loud. When a child see's the absolute delight in tossing blocks because they make such wonderful noise bouncing off the walls so what if it drives you to distraction just think about the joy they are having and how they are building those muscles to be such great ball players.

Joy comes in many forms we just need to take a moment and realize that this to is just another moment in time that will be quickly over and never to be again. Each day is a new begining to another day that we are being blessed with.

I give thanks to GOD that I am able to enjoy these little things and I ask HIM daily to grant me with the patience, understanding and insight to take it as it comes with a smile.
