Both in One Place
Today I am grateful for the opportunities presented to us as parents, and now grandparents. I am also grateful for time outside this morning with eyes that can see, ears that can hear, skin that can feel.
Yesterday afternoon we were treated to some time with both of our grandsons. We get to see Leo, the 3-year old, regularly. He and his mom Emily live here in town. Aaron, at nine months, came to visit for the weekend with his parents Arthur and Alyssa. We miss being able to see Aaron as frequently, and he changes so much at this age.
It is nice to see the boys' parents too of course, and to also offer them some free babysitting, a win-win for all. We will be treated to more time with both boys today. They give us such a wonderful reminder to live in the present moment, to be tuned in to our current surroundings, to find wonder in the little things.
Our efforts to get the two boys together for a picture weren't successful yesterday, but I did capture each of them here:

Aaron was enjoying sucking on a wet wash cloth and Leo was in pursuit of some bubbles he had just blown. Life's simple pleasures and comforts.
What are your simple pleasures and comforts? Take time to enjoy some today.
