' Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.'
~H. Jackson Brown
Something interesting that I am faced with at the moment is the momentary reminder to love now!
Yes we have an adventure of a life time just around the corner and yes I have little bursts of excitement, panic, anxiety and sometimes sheer joy mixed with so many other fleeting emotions. But I love the challenge that I have put upon myself - I do not want to lose the next month and a half stuck waiting for tomorrow.
I want to embrace these feelings, see them, feel them and except them but also love what every day life is.
Every day life is being a home mother running babies to school, getting them to bed, having late nights playing at the beach, cooking meals and making beds. It is still lovely and sometimes not so lovely, but I love my job and I am ever grateful for doing it.
I have no desire to miss it all now waiting for our trip.
So I can hold onto my myriad of emotions about the journey and feel them for what they are worth. Yet I can appreciate each and every day here to the lead up.
After all dreaming is beautiful, but the present was my dream yesterday.
Lots of love

Living and loving today, filling your eyes and ears with the simple joy of parenting. The time goes all to quickly when little hands hold yours, big eyes look into yours...steps..those first steps a babe takes are the their first steps towards their future and yes away from you but never gone...hold the hug a bit longer..breathe it in.
I love the photo...calm waters.
