my favorite quote. ever.

I was driving home today after a quick lunch date with my sweet Tyson, my middle son.....I was feeling grateful. Just him and I. No little brother begging for my attention. No big brother making fun of him. Just us. Sitting at a booth talking and laughing and catching up. I almost got all filled up with tears thinking about how blessed I am to do what I love as a professional AND more importantly, be the kind of mom I've always wanted to be.

I'm not sure why I feel a pull some times to create. I'd like to think it's my inner "light"...begging me to do more. Be a better person. Love more. Inspire others to do the same.

After my lunch today, I was practically running to my mac to get this done. I couldn't wait to share it with everyone.  (free download link is below)

One of my favorite people in the entire world, my dad, wrote this amazing quote after his father passed away. I don't even know if he realizes that I've had it memorized since I was a little girl. I love it. It has had such an impact on me.

It was so simple, just a lunch. But it reminded me that I am doing what I've always wanted to do....be a great mother to my children and shower them with my love. Even after I'm gone, I know it's the simple things we've done together (lunch dates in the middle of the day), that they will remember the most....and the love that they feel pouring out of me, will be passed along to all the people in their lives.

I am including a free 8 x 10 download here for you.

I hope you enjoy it.
