I wrote this the day before I went in for my mastectomy while I had 30 minutes when both kids were actually napping at the same time (a real rarity around here!)
No matter what tomorrow brings, today was the perfect day because I...
- hugged my babies
- made Tennasyn and Cole smile
- heard the sound of my kids laughing
- kissed my husband
- got to love and be loved by my family
- saw the excitement on Tennasyn's face
- taught Tennasyn something new
- smelled their clean heads after giving them a bath
- danced with my kids
- was the only one on Earth who could make everything all better
- played with my dogs
- gazed into Cole's eyes and saw the purest form of love
- gave Tennasyn "just one more kiss"
- laughed
- talked with my friends and told them I loved them
- was able to help a friend through a problem
- hugged my parents
- chatted with my brother
- my sister encouraged me that everything was going to be okay over a glass of wine
- had an open mouth kiss with Joel, my nephew
- experienced pure joy through my children's eyes
- fell in love with my husband, children and life all over again
- held hands
- was reminded at how many blessings God has given me
- saw Gods' grace in my children's faces
- felt comforted by Tennasyn saying "It's okay Mommy" and giving me a hug
- played with my children
- read to them
- saw Cole's happy dance after he awoke from a nap
- felt sweet chubby hands cradling my face
- heard Cole's coos and Tennasyn's words
- appreciated others and felt appreciated
- twirled in circles with Tennasyn
- went for a walk and felt the breeze on my face
- prayed for our family and friends that God answers their prayers
- was kissed by two precious angels, Tennasyn and Cole, my heart and soul
