Moments

There are moments in our life that hit us, linger on us, embrace us, sadden us, surprise us and amaze us.
Moments make up our lives, make us who we are.
We look back at those moments, we remember, we re tell those moments, we replay those moments.
We dream about our moments, we wish we could re live or forget those moments.
It is nice to hold and absorb a moment when you know it's happening.
Precious moments are the ones I am falling in love with.

The other day we were walking around the shop browsing as Craig was talking to someone, he came back to us and Bridie asked if she could go to the toilet. He scooped her up and in that moment of scooping they faced each other and smiled. They kept looking at each other, then Craig whispered in her ear, she smiled and they then disappeared around the corner.

The sun's warmth and colour on the big old gum trees in the afternoon in our street.

The courage you see in Balun when he is trying something for the first time and the excitement when he achieves it.

A beautiful saying I heard in a film recently told to a small child
                                                           " you are kind, you are smart, you are important".
I whispered this to Bridie and Balun and they both pulled back gently, looked at me and smiled.
I told them I am going to tell them that everyday.
Bridie asked what important meant so I explained. Could we add brave and beautiful to mum, I think we can add those two, she smiled and kissed me.
As we left school this morning Bridie cuddled myself and Balun and then whispered those words to me.

A touch.

A cry, a big cry.

A laugh.

Moments happen everyday, Enjoy xxx
