the sheer thrill of your first cotton candy on a stick...
seeing the adorable children you used to babysit, eat macaroni and cheese and watch Are You Afraid of the Dark every Saturday night with for what feels like an eternity, graduate from high school themselves and begin amazing lives of their own....
playing sports when winning wasn't really all that important, it was just fun to be part of a team...
realizing that another one of your "kids" that you have tutored since pre-kindergarten is going to be in fourth grade...
playing on the beach without a care in the world.....
the simple things. may they always remind us what an incredible gift life truly is, even when your day starts out with your son having a blow-out that requires a hose down, and the dog steals all of the kids' snacks from off of the couch as they scream in sheer horror, and then you burn the waffles and your son decides to feed his breakfast to the dog anyways. sometimes I really need to be reminded that life is good.
because it really is.

Oh...and I just can't BELIEVE that your precious Presman would EVER have a blow out...he is too innocent looking :)
You're right...life is good no matter what the days ups and downs bring. This is a great picture to remember that by.
