Simple, Beautiful Moments

Leave a comment

I have been focusing more lately on savoring all of those beautiful little moments that make up life and last Sunday was filled with them.

We visited the Deep Fork Wildlife Refuge in Okmulgee after church.

The sun was shining, the kids ran, it was beautiful.

Nick and I held hands as we walked on the Railroad Trail to the River Overlook.

I just kept sighing.

That moment was perfect.

This man is amazing.

We came home and the air filled with the sounds of kids laughing as the day faded away.

Of course the day was filled with normal stuff also, correction, fighting, and so on, but I feel like that stuff just makes the beautiful moments stand out even more.

Kids playing on a rope swing while the sun sets behind them.

I did not want to go inside and make dinner.

I felt like I would miss something.

Life is filled with so many beautiful moments, I want to cherish as many as I can.

I was actually working on a homeschooling post for today but while editing the pictures from our recent camping trip, I came across these.

I could not resist sharing them.

I asked my eight year old to take some pictures of Nick and I while on a nature walk.

He then proceeded to do a spin and shoot move.

I feel like marriage is a daily choice to choose kindness.

So many things could be said that would not be kind but life is so much better when you choose kindness.

A tone of voice can say so much.

I am so blessed to be with someone who chooses kindness.
