Like putting on endless coats, boots, hats and mittens.
Like filling dozens of sippy cups and water glasses.
Like taking a few minutes to play a couple rounds of UNO with the 5-yr. old.
Like coloring Strawberry Shortcake pictures with little girls.
Like fixing a favorite meal of sweet-n-sour chicken over rice.
Like teaching the 8 yr. old to make carrot cake.
Like whipping up fruit smoothies for everyone before bed.
Like saying "I Love You" and giving genuine smiles into shining eyes.
Like snuggling my 4 mo. old with his favorite soft blanket when his eyes are drooping.
Like baking pretty cupcakes with the 3 yr. old.
But how can I not spill over to those around me when my amazing Father pours out those little things {and not so little!} to me so often?
Like helping us find the error on our tax forms that saved us thousands of dollars.
Like restoring my milk supply when I ran out after the Babe was so sick for a week.
Like surrounding me with such sweet friends who bless me so often.
Like whispering such utter peace when my heart is in turmoil.
Like giving me a hope and a future. I have so much, both right this minute, and to look forward to. I am so, so, so very blessed.
I thank God for little things!
