Little mimics big and they dance like no one is looking but I can’t stop. These little women, full of grace. This one of mine with each step a dance, each word a song, she makes music in my heart…

They concentrate and they squeeze every bit of bliss from this dance. It goes on and on and on and the joy keeps getting bigger and bigger.

Oh to embrace each moment just like this…to be fully alive, fully engaged, fully present. To partake of each of the blessings as I’m in the midst of them. No straining forward no reaching back, no questioning myself or feeling shame for this much joy.

No…today I make room for gratitude for the moment…and the joy goes on and on.
