taking it in

i'm taking it in today.
just taking it ALL in.
so many precious moments if i just STOP and WATCH and take it in!
like this sweet girl making a "picture" - how cute is her ponytail?
and you can't see her little feet curled around the bar under the chair seat.

those sweet hands that are always all over me.

and i just got to "talk" to joshua on his phone.
we had quite a conversation about lunch.

and i got to hold sawyer for a few precious minutes and he just fell asleep and laid on me.
oh, that feeling...of a sleeping baby laying on you.
the trust...the innocence. it makes my heart feel like it's going to explode.

(don't worry...it hasn't been ALL so sweet.
bailey has been "frusterated" many times.
joshua lost his special car and you would have thought his arm got ripped off.
and sawyer has been especially fussy today...hence the falling asleep on me...he cried himself to exhaustion.
just to name a few.
i didn't want you to think we were perfect over here or something ;-))
