Sometimes it's the little things

(sorry the pics are huge, but I don't feel like doing it again sooo...)

As a mom we have to step back and realize it's those little every day moments that make it all worth while. Others see the big changes (starting to crawl, walk, talk etc...), others see them grow, others see the big things

But as a mother we are in the "trenches" every day. We have to step back and look at the little things and realize... it's the little things that matter most
