I am thinking a lot about this lately... grateful. I am grateful but my everyday actions don't always show it. I get caught up in the everyday stuff of life. The attitude of gratitude leaves me and I get selfish. I get mean. I am grouchy. I look at these two photos... one of my boys sleeping and one of Makenna - care free and twirling. Not a worry on their faces. Just peace and bliss. I want to learn from my little ones to always grab the moment and live it. Be thankful and let that pour over on those around me... especially those directly around me.
The pictures of your kids are beautiful. If only we could be as care-free as they are. It's so hard to live in the moment and not worry about what's next, what needs to be done and what's going on. You are right, remembering to be grateful is so important!
