Joy

I recently made this necklace. I picked out joy, to remind me to have joy in motherhood, to not get bogged down with laundry, dishes and noise, but to enjoy my fat fingered children. (I love fat sausage fingered children.) Every time I look in the mirror I see joy, and it helps the day go on.

Just to prove I'm embracing motherhood. Here is the firetruck with an arrow picture.

I really do love my children, I just need a reminder of how fun they are sometimes. I don't want them to grow up and me realize one day I let it all slip away.
