Joy in the Moment

Finding joy in the moment.

With my life full of upheaval, I am working hard to find joy in the moment.

Walking into the house after being out on the road in the dark and the rain to hear my girl yelling spicy eyes, spicy eyes was funny. She was chopping onions.

Listening to my daughter scream and giggle while reuniting with a friend after two weeks apart was a sweet joyful moment.

Big sloppy hugs from my 13 year old son was refreshing.

The gleam in my sweethearts eyes even when I look like a wet cat makes me smile.

The soldier sitting in the waiting room who smiled and said thanks for talking with me, filled my heart.

The smile of the lady across the way who was genuinely happy to see me was touching.

The smell of the pumpkin bread that my daughter made all by herself and that was just as tasty as it smelled was a huge blessing.

Hugging my mommy as we cried over the loss of a dear family member was bitter sweet.

Seeing the sun rise over the mountian on dialysis mornings is amazing.

The realization that God is with me all the time...again...and that only through Him will I find peace is satisfying.
