Wacky school Friday included me taking the day off from work and having quality time with the girls.  It was hot and we took an activity break to walk to the field off Hillington.

These three are mine.  Days are sometimes hard, and I often miss the innocence of the baby and toddler phase.  I miss my perception and ability to experience life through their innocent heart and minds. But then there are times like this…and I just sit staring at the picture, reflecting on the fact that THESE THREE ARE MINE!!

Harper was running wildly through the buttercups, calling me over to each section saying “Mama, aren’t they so beautiful”.  “Yes, Harper…they absolutely are beautiful”.

A gentle reminder that no matter how old they get or how much I miss the baby and toddler phase, life is filled with abundances and beauty – even when babies and toddlers are no longer in the picture – just look at this these buttercups and this cutie!
