I love life…

Wow, Tuesday started pretty interesting.  One daughter begrudgingly in the shower and one doing a “little puke”.  How my life has changed!

It’s amazing how such little moments of life can mean so much.  We spend our lives focusing on the “big things” and career goals and blah blah blah.  Don’t get me wrong, all those matter in the mix, but life’s little choices and moments define us.  I won’t remember getting my first “career” job, like I will walking my daughter beside a country road with the mountains in the distance.  Or the day I asked my wife to marry me.  It’s all perspective.

So back to Tuesday morning… I tend to ramble!  After this challenging beginning to the day, my youngest was cuddling with my wife in bed, seemingly unaware that she just had a traumatic puke (Just a little bit, daddy, she said).  I asked her if her mommy was beautiful and she said she was a princess.  Then her sister and herself were princesses too!  She wasn’t sure what daddy was, but that’s ok.  I want her to see every girl as a princess.

So, in a nutshell, life is short, random and NEVER what we plan, but man it is good.  I am blessed beyond measure and I can’t wait to see what the next 10,20,50 or more years are like.  I’ll have ups and downs, but the little moments of bliss will keep me going through the storms.

Keep smiling!
