The beautiful things in life

hearing your babies heart beat strong & healthy for the first time post open heart surgery

babies in the morning - they are always happy
.
hugs & kisses when the big kids get home from school

how Aubrie sings to Ollie Faith when she gets upset - You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

how Everett plays in her face, which typically would annoy a person, but how Ollie Faith laughs hysterical at him because she loves him

Jade & Ollie snuggling on the couch at night

Aubrie & Everett getting a long and saying they are best friends

Aubrie and Caroline coloring kitties at the kitchen table for hours, they are two peas in a pod

Ollie and Penelope playing together on the floor mat, working their hardest to get the toy chicken into one of their mouths - the definition of teamwork

the fall colors in the trees - our woods are gorgeous right now

all the new friends I have made through the Down Syndrome community - beautiful kiddos - beautiful famlies

realizing that God's plans are bigger and better than any plan you can ever dream up for yourself

    So important to look for the beauty in life, as well as the everyday miracles. :)
    Before Liddy, I was only on the look out for BIG miracles. Now I know fully that there are oodles and oodles of tiny ones all around us.
