Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

What a MESS!



To laugh or cry? So after making a million messes today, I just laughed and grabbed the camera. Of course you can see the canned food mess and they aren't wearing pants because we were outside playing with chalk. The pants had to go into the laundry. That's the tip of the ice burg. Nobody would believe all the messes if I didn't take a picture, so here it is. Just laugh. The title is my quote. Meredith was all smiles it was great fun, but Emily. She knew she was in trouble and wondered what in the world was wrong with Mommy who was all grins and trying to make them smile for the camera. Mommy'd lost it obviously.

When I saw the girls in the picture, I felt glad, I mean bad, that you don't live close enough for me to help clean them up!
