In One Word

Chaos!! One word that describes most of my days. Chaos, a total lack of organization or order. With a very active two year old and 4 month old, I feel like my life is in complete chaos. My house is a mess most days with toy trucks in random places, building blocks in different rooms, bibs on the couch, books all over the place and play-Doh stuck in the rug. You know what that tells me? I have a home that is filled with love and children. A good friend of mine always says "This to shall pass" and she's right, this is such a short time in life and one day, I will miss it. Think about this, if you were to leave this world today, would it matter that you had dishes in the sink or would it matter that you shared time playing and teaching your children? I know I would rather leave this world doing the latter. Today, I've stayed home 1. Because I haven't felt great (mother nature time) and 2. I just wanted to play with my boys. Hunter is at a fun age and is such a little sponge and sometimes you just need mommy to play, so we did just that. Colton is 4 months and already rolling over and for the first time he played in the jump-a-roo ! It was so fun to watch and I found myself reminiscing of the days Hunter played in the same jump-a-roo. WOW! Was that really almost two years ago? So, I realized I need to slow down and savor these moments, because it really will pass and I really will miss it. Every age comes with its own set of memories and fun times, but I want to experience them all to the fullest. As I walked down the steps from laying my oldest down for a nap, I looked at the bridge we made out of legos for the hot wheels, the jump-a-roo my youngest played in today and the trucks all over the couch. I thought to myself, today has been a fun day !! I wasn't worried that the house was a mess, I was happy that we had fun together. Slow down because life really does fly by and you don't want to miss it. What word best describes your days?
