i love the laughter that the sunshine brings. between the splashing in the pool and the bouncing on the trampoline, shrieks of delight can be heard ringing out through our backyard oasis.
smiles are more then abundant as we play with our friends finding fun and exciting ways to cool off. by the end of the day we have had our fair share of sunshine and happiness that it almost feels like we are stealing it away from others. we wouldn't change this feeling for the world though.
we see silly faces and expressions as the cold water dances around our feet and splashes into our hair . . . we listen to the stories being told of their adventures and fun . . . we revel in the fact that our little girls love the outdoors just as much as we do . . . and then, in the midst of it all comes the small little scream when a tiny little bug, no bigger then a fly, interrupts our play time and brings just a small look of panic on their precious little faces. we reassure them that they are safe, we cuddle them close and then, the fun begins all over again.
and at the end of the day as the exhaustion sets in and their happy little faces are slowly yawning away in the setting sun we bring our day to a close with a snuggle on the couch under our favourite orange blanket and remind ourselves that tomorrow will only bring more fun for everyone.
and so we end our days with happy memories placed on our hearts and engraved on our souls and pray that God will grant us many more of these days together. and as they lay their heads down on their pillows, silently tucked in for the night as adventures in odessey silently lulls them to sleep, mommy kisses their heads and smiles at the swelling of her heart as i know that these precious two are mine to keep . . . forever.
