I'm thinking...

...that my boys are getting too big, too fast.

...that I would love to add 1.5 more hours to the day-it would make a world of difference.

...that I love feeling this new little life make his/her presence known, the movements getting stronger every day.

...that I don't focus on the here and now enough.

...that I am blessed with such a beautiful family.

...that I love spying on my boys during the day (on site daycare) to see what kind of fun they are having.

...that when I watch them, I wish I was splashing in the water or sliding down the slide with them.

...that my husband is a really good Daddy who loves and is loved so much by his children (oh and by me too!).

...that time goes by so fast, I can't always take everything in.

...that having Fridays off helps time to slow down just a bit.

...that I spend too much time worrying.

...that I waste too much time being disgruntled.

...that I hope Michael and Liam know how much I love them.

...that this new little one better be able to hang tough with two older brothers.

...how much I love Liam in the morning because he is pleasant as punch and snuggles into me with all his warmth and soft skin.

...how much I love waking up to see Michael's beautiful sleeping face (even though I wish he would sleep the night in his own bed, I savor these moments).

I'm thinking I want to bring my focus back to the things that matter and hold them close to my heart. There is so much that is good in my life- it far outweighs any downside. I want to try to put aside petty concerns and silly preoccupations.

I'm thinking about putting my thoughts into action, instead of just sitting around & thinking.

Jane, this post made me a bit teary eyed. "I'm thinking" I'll snuggle the Salad a little longer when they wake up from their naps. Thanks for making me think.
