Happy in the Now

Gentle light playing with the spiral of hair on top of his head.

Water splashed all over the kitchen during his bath.

Wrinkly toes.

His clumsy “hugs” and sloppy “kisses”, so very full of joy.

Amazed expression when he looks at his reflection in the mirror.

The shadows his long eyelashes create on his cheeks.

His hands chasing an elusive toy all over the play mat.

The first time he touches sand, grabbing it, squeezing his fist tight, only to see it trickle through his fingers.

Pumpkin being smeared all over the tray of his high chair. I call it “food art”.

The soft warm breath, the perfect “O” of his lips when he is finally asleep.

All these little moments that create our everyday, they make me so happy.
