turning mundane to majestic.

dancing to this song i just discovered (i love it!) 

our days have been really slow around here.
mostly due to my heavy belly and desire to just be at home:)
and it feels good.

today was a good day for me.
i learned a lot at church
 and have had a lot of thoughts about my life...
the way it is going.

each day is a gift.
and sometimes a day can seem boring and monotonous,
and exhausting all at the same time.
but it doesn't have to feel that way.
that's something i have to remind myself of often.
each day is a gift and what i do with it is up to me.

tonight we let preslee fall asleep on the couch just because,
which is something we don't normally do,
but maybe we should because i loved it.

i watched her fall to sleep as i rubbed her little feet with lotion.
the lights were dim and soft music playing.
for me it was a glimpse of heaven.
i told todd,
"these are the moments we're going to remember when our kids are grown, and i want to have more of them."

i want to soak in every moment.
i don't want worry for a perfectly smooth schedule/routine
to fill my moments.
i just want to enjoy more.
and i'm going to.
it's on my list for 2012:)
i want to let the mundane become, and feel, majestic 
every.single.day.
