“The little things are not little things. They are everything.”
The way your child plays with your dress while nursing.
The way your baby holds your finger with his/her tiny hand.
They way he/she giggles at everything you do.
The way he/she looks up at your when you’re explaining something.
The way your child runs to you when you get home.
The way your child rests his/her head perfectly on your shoulder.
The way his/her pure and innocent eyes experience all of the beauties of this world.
The little things are not little things. They are everything.
Motherhood is everything.
This has been on my mind a lot lately as I’ve been prepping for my little one to start school for the first time. I look back at the past few years in awe of what I have been given and I am filled with gratitude. I think about some of my fondest memories with my boy and they are all the most simple, beautiful moments. A collection of little things that truly mean EVERYTHING to me. Motherhood is everything. I thank God every day that I am a Mother.
