The Simply Joy

If you are, like me, a busy mother, you need to have some of these simply joys:

• To watch children wild, happy play,


• To hug your children, let their small arms circle your neck


• To kiss your children, and tell them “I love you”


• To catch every minute extra sleep


• To read a good book whenever you are free and replenish them often


• To go window shopping but don’t bring your children


• To tip toe to the kitchen, after your children are in bed, and share a cup of ice cream with your husband


• To drive on the road, with green, tall trees shadowing on both side, listen some classic and let your mind fly


• To sip coffee at your favorite coffee shop, with one book on hand; or just make a cup of coffee, have a tea party with your children


• To go for a spa and massage

I am treasuring and enjoying each and every moment of these simply joys whenever I can, though not often, I am thankful that I can "make" time for these "joys". The simply joy is for you to catch, it could be a petal of a flower, or singing of a bird, a gentle breeze or drizzling rain.... Whatever they are, if you are willing, you can find them.

May God open your heart and mind to touch them and let these simply joys in return make your life beautiful.
