Being a stay at home mom...

I have always been more than thankful to be able to stay at home with my sweet baby girl. Taking care of my family is not only a joy for me but something I take much pride in. Today I was so wonderfully reminded of how blessed I am. Little Lady and I were out and about running errands. We were headed in the direction of Wal-Mart and I thought to myself that it is way WAY too beautiful today to be inside. So I headed in the direction of the "little zoo". We arrived only to find that it still doesn't open till April 1. Not to be discouraged, I took a look around saw a new park, pulled the Jeep into a spot and let Little Lady swing the afternoon away. After she was good and tired of swinging, we loaded back up and went to Wal-Mart. And this little moment of freedom, of realizing that I don't have to squeeze time with my kids and errands into a weekend reminded me of just how lucky and truly blessed I am. So thank you Big A for letting me stay home with our sweet little girl. You will never know how much those moments in the park mean to me.
