Reasons to be grateful

There are more photos and stories to be shared, but I can't resist sharing this one! Definitely a top reason for gratitude today.

My four favorite people - I am blessed!

I just love this quartet so very much.

Here are some more happy things -

- my older two are happily playing something in their room, and have been for 20 minutes or so, while my youngest is happily sleeping in her "own room."
- we didn't lose "froggie" in the Animal Kingdom parking lot/trash compactor like I thought we did
- we had a fabulous family day yesterday and I'm geared up for a fabulous cleaning and library day today

P52 - Sacrifice

project 52 p52 weekly photo challenge my3boybarians.com

This photo theme seemed to be the perfect time to jump back in. Although the idea of what I needed to capture didn't immediately jump out at me, my husband said something that quickly caused it to click. We were talking about what "sacrifice" looks like, trying to brainstorm, and he mentioned I should take a picture of me feeding Jocelyn at three in the morning. I appreciated his sentiment, but that seemed a little self glorifying in my book. I quickly thought about what he was going to do the next day - come home early, give up time at work, stay home with the kids, put off naptime for as long as possible to hopefully still give me a break later, so that I could go and take newborn photos for a friend. He is such a sacrificing daddy.

The photos were taken in less than desirable light, but they are a great reminder of the amazing, tangible, sacrificial love he shows our three children every day.

We love you, daddy!
