Tonight I took a beach towel and sat in the back yard. As the boys frolicked in the spray of the sprinkler and Hubby pottered in the shed, I felt a warm wave of contentment wash over me.
I laid back on the beach towel and gazed up at the clear blue sky. I smiled to myself, I never would have imagined that something as simple as a perfectly clear blue sky could bring such warmth and happiness to my heart.
All of a sudden I heard a cheeky little giggle and my view was slightly skewed.
What a delightful distraction he is.
I'm adding this to Chantelle's first Point and Shoot challenge for 2011, come and play along too :)
OH Emma, I know what you mean about finding so much beauty & contentment in the little things these days....such as a clear blue sky & happy, playing children :) And Jack is just soooooo cute :) That photo of him made me smile :)
