Enlightened

We just returned from an 8 day trip to Disney! What fun! It was tough with a 2 and 4-year old and my loving (but not in love with Disney) husband. :) We are planning another trip for early 2009. It seems that at Disney, I can let everything go and just enjoy life. I don't allow myself to do that at home. I am too busy trying to be a good mommy, wife, housekeeper and speech therapist.

I think I love Disney so much because of the freedom of stress and responsibility that I experience there. I long to establish that in my everyday life. So that has become my goal - to take life less seriously and find joy in my everyday happenings (instead of waiting until I go to Disney!) Life is short and I often take for granted the true blessings I have.

These are my beautiful babies. God has blessed me in so many ways. One way is He provided me with two happy, healthy kiddos that fill my day with joy! Motherhood is certainly one of the most challenging and rewarding things I have ever done.
