Sometimes I get so busy moving THROUGH my day that I unintentionally miss out on the beauty IN it. As I was cleaning up and doing laundry I took a minute to actually pause and watch Virginia lie in her basket.

She embodies contentment. So fresh into the world and so free!

It seems like kids just know who they are and live life to the fullest in their own little way.

I used to lie in that basket. Somewhere along the way I got out. With it being a new year, no time is better than now to find my basket and climb back in.

May 2015 be a year of simplicity and contentment. Let us find pleasure in the small things, joy in our relationships, and courage to trust those around us.

Happy New Year!
