"Let's be honest; it's rather easy to be busy. We can all think up a list of tasks that will overwhelm our schedules. Some might even think that their self worth depends on the length of their to-do list . . . Because they unnecessarily complicate their lives, they often feel increased frustration, diminished joy, and too little sense of meaning in their lives." ~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf (of the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints)

Simple
On Tuesday morning I made my husband's lunch for him for the first time in . . .I don't know . . . months and months. It made me happy to do that. I used to do it every day. I think I should do that more often. It made him happy too. And all it was was a PB sandwich, two hardboiled eggs, a clementine, and some carrots. Somehow those less than 5 minutes of service to my husband made me a more loving and grateful mom that day. I guess it's the little things.
