I used to think that the most fulfilling life was one of adventure, purpose, and uniformity. Then, I got married, had babies and became a woman(still working on this one). I now realize, thanks to my husbands unwavering devotion to the "simple things" in life, that the most precious, priceless moments are those that you can't and don't prepare for. Moments that just happen.....and in that moment, you realize there is nowhere else you would rather be. You are at peace right where you are. It has taken many years to get there, but I am there.
I see God's grace when I look into my daughter's eyes and at 2 yrs old, she tells me I am her best friend-when I hear my 8 year old son reading so softly to his younger brother and when my 7 yr old son, for no reason at all, tells me he loves me.
THESE are the moments that I live for and THIS is the most fulfilling life!
