Every moment matters

      My focus right now is just on enjoying the little things in life. There are moments every single day that I miss that could change my mood or perception of any given situation. There are also a lot of things in all of our lives that we tend to take for granted every day. Here are a few of my 2015 favorite things so far...

My Disney Thomas Kinkade calender that I got for Christmas from a friend. It's one of the first things I see in the morning, I walk by it constantly and I am just head over heels with it. I love the detail and the beauty and color and just the overall magic he brings out of something that was already magical.

This everyday moments book (from the same friend as the calendar posted above) has been wonderful. It's a way to look back on each and every day and find the positives in all of it. Even if it felt like a bad day, or an unproductive day, there is some good moment somewhere to be remembered.

I love her. She loves who she is. She knows who she is. She is amazing and also HILARIOUS. I agree with this quote whole heartedly. I have always been the type of person who doesn't care much for what other people think of me. Of course the opinions of my friends and family matter to me but as long as I know what I am doing and I love myself... that is all that really matters.

Ok, so I got a tablet for Christmas. It's a Windows tablet and it has this AMAZING thing called One Note. Ok, maybe I'm living in the ice age here but I had no idea this existed. I AM IN LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!! I can make to do lists on it or on the app for one note on my phone and it all syncs and I can check things off as I go. I cannot stop. I am definitely a crazy list person but I hate carrying notebooks or losing scraps of paper I write things down on. I also hate not being able to check things off of a list. In the past if I made a list on my phone I would delete each task when it was done but then I can't go back and look at all that I have accomplished. This lets me make a list, check things off and keep it. I have never been more excited!

Of course, my children. A day will never go by when I do not appreciate every single moment with them. Yes, they can be difficult. Yes, sometimes I do need to get away or take a breather. But no matter what, I love every thing that they do and all the crazy things that they say. Sure, Sophia may draw all over EVERYTHING with whatever writing utensil she somehow gets a hold of no matter how high up I put them. Yet, these are moments that I wouldn't trade for a second. Every moment with them matters. Every second with them makes me a better person. There are no two people I love more in this world than these little goons. 

     These are a few of the things that have made the start of my 2015 better. I can only imagine how much better this year is going to get! Love, love, love!
