greatness

It is the small simple things,

like angry bird towers

and the simple display of preschool art work.

Hand crocheted snowflakes by a great-great-grandma

and train rides with friends.

Discovering that play gun again after a long toy-gone-time-out

and cute little toes.

Turtle friends for lunch

and crossed-legged sleeping after a long nap-free day.

"Your greatness is measured by your gifts, not by what you have."

And at the end of the day, it isn't the clean house or the warm ginger drinks that makes me feel great.  

Greatness (for me) is found in the small things, the hugs and kisses, and words of love.
I am grateful for my kids... their love makes me feel great.
