Enjoy the little things

It's the little things in life that matter to us.  To our family, a simple day at the park, a walk down the street, or some quiet time tossing around a ball are things that we do not take for granted.  This evening it was chinese food and ice cream.  We don't eat out very often, so when we do it always feels like a special treat.  Today before nap the boys fell asleep quickly knowing that when they woke up we were going to have a "good day" like Caleb calls it.

We went to the store and picked up a tub of ice cream, cones, and chocolate syrup.  The look on Caleb's face was something I will always remember as he scanned his things at the self check out.  He knows that this is family time, and he enjoys it.

Life may be crazy and hectic, but it's the little things like a simple family dinner and dessert that puts spark back into the day to day routine.  It is times like this that I will remember the most.
