The Simple Things


























One of my little blessings this year has been the one on one time I get to spend with both of my children.  When I switched Ryker from the morning class to the afternoon...instead of having alone time I have been able to spend quality time with my kids and I LOVE it!!  Some days are just normal days at home, but then sometimes we make something ordinary...special.

On this particular day it had been snowing and was cold outside, so after we dropped Maguire off at school, Ryker and I sat at the kitchen table drinking hot chocolate together!  It wasn't anything crazy, didn't take me all day and night to get ready, I didn't spend a fortune buying it and yet this 30 minutes talking and laughing together is priceless!!!

I quickly snapped a couple of pictures of my cute date and hadn't checked my settings to notice that he was over exposed!  Oops!!!  It's not always about a perfect picture...sometimes just capturing the moment however it may be is what is most important.  I say it ALL the time, but I just don't want to forget these precious moments with my children....  

When they're all grown and have families of their own I want to be able to look back in the family photo albums and remember how cherished these years were....
