Big and Small
/Today:
I made oatmeal
French pressed my coffee
Said some sweet things to my girl Emma as she left for school
Spent 45 minutes at the gym pedaling a bike that didn't go anywhere
Changed light bulbs
Changed bedding
Made brownies
Made granola bites
Prepped for my childbirth class
Helped with math
Ran the dishwasher 3 times before dinner
Listened to Laurel read
Prepared salmon
Swooned over all the lovely words and images here
Hung towels out to dry
Swept the kitchen floor
And then...
I took the kids on a little evening walk.
Sometimes life is about doing big things in big ways. Other times it is just a series of small, seemingly insignificant things done quietly. I think we should celebrate big and small. There is beauty and meaning in both. In fact, I think collectively, the small things are actually quite big.
