title it.

nothing like the sweet smell
of freshly-washed little girl locks
in lavender scented shampoo
----------------
nothing like snuggles at bedtime
lots of giggles
and an abundance of baby-style kisses
{wet. very wet}
-----------------
nothing like stopping time
even if just for the moment
to savor your baby
in all her wonderfulness.
-----------------



 so much to be thankful for.
lots of big things
but the small things, too
that I sometimes overlook....

health!
{antibiotics for Charity's ear infection}
beautiful fall days
{and the smell of candles burning}
pumpkin baked goods overtaking every bakery
{and my kitchen}
email updates from close friends who live far away
{and hearing about God at work in foreign lands!}
post-season Brewers baseball
{and the joy it brings my husband}
salted caramel mochas
{and a sweet friend who brings one to MomTime for me}


have a super day looking for the big
{and small}
things to be thankful for!
