*today*

today we were early to pick up maeve from 

preschool

it was rainy and a little dreary so 

ezra and i 

waited in the car

it was boring.

so i reached back a finger to see if he would grab it

and he did

and he squeezed my finger tight and 

promptly

fell

asleep

it was the most beautiful little moment

my little sleeping angel

(there won't be many more months of spontaneous napping--these times are so sweet)

gripping my finger like a vise

and when i pried it away to go grab maeve

he wailed

and i thought

*he loves me*

it's so wonderful, that for a little while, 
to our children 
*we are the whole world*

remind me of this next time i am tired

and weary

exhausted

and 

*done*

these moments are sweet and fleeting and beautiful

did you have any beautiful moments today?
