my little cougars

Lots of days I forget how blessed I am to be Blake and Evelyn's mom: to get to spend each day at home with them.  It really is a blessing, one that I take for granted far too often.  I'm constantly fighting the balance of how much to get out and "do" versus just being content to stay at home and relish in days that we don't have to be anywhere. This week I'm going to try and enjoy the simple moments: to observe their little hands figure out how things work, to talk more at breakfast and lunch instead of trying to multi-task, and to hug them lots and lots. Before I know it, they'll be off at BYU (we can only hope) and I'll be wishing these simple days with them by my side were back again.
