This moment.....

A single moment from the day that makes me smile and warms my heart.  A moment that reminds me what staying at home and being a homemaker is all about for me and why I do it.  

I'm sitting here in the lounge on my favourite rocking chair with a hot cuppa.  The lounge is littered with toys, the kitchen remains untouched from the morning routine.  The boys are playing quietly and independently but come togeather for a few moments before going back to their own game.  I'm watching Henry gently and thoughtfully tap the keys and listen to the sounds on this mini xylophone, creating patterns and rhythms.  He is deliberately listening and tapping keys in groups of three.  

It's a bitter sweet moment as I realise he is growing so fast and is now firmly into toddlerhood.  How did we get here so fast?  We have so much fun ahead of us, but it is clear my baby has grown.  I am greatful and so blessed but it's a firm reminder that Im quite possibly nearing the end of the chapter of being at home with cheeky toddlers and sweet babies.  I thank God for the blessing of motherhood and the privledge of having these sweet babies in my care.  It's not easy, it often pushes me to my physical and emotional limits but in my heart of hearts I wouldn't change a thing and worth every moment of giving up my career.     ❤️💛💙💜💚
