Pretty much everyday, one of the first things out of Mady's mouth is "so, what are we doing today?" And normally, I give her the run down. But today, today was different, I thought to myself for a moment and said, "nothing". Her response, "so, where are we going?" I said, "nowhere".
And it was a lovely day of nothing...we don't have many of those around these parts but today we did and I enjoyed it. We went out for a run before it got too hot, played with lots of toys, painted all of our toenails, ate lunch, had naps, played more until daddy came home. And when daddy came home, he said it looked like a hurricane had hit all of the rooms but 1 bedroom.
True story, there were toys EVERYWHERE, bathrooms included. And I said, this is what happens when we stay home all day.
But what also happens when we stay home all day is that I can appreciate everything that I have right here in arm's reach. I LOVED every second of playing with my girls. I LOVED getting to lay out for 20 min while they napped. I LOVED feeling the sun beating on me and hearing the birds chirping.
God is so good. All the time.
I need to take my more to appreciate everything and thank God for everything He has given me.
