Magic

Alisha says: After a few hard days with just getting back from our trip to Utah, the kids both had little colds and were a little cranky, they were out of their routines and not taking good naps. We all had been a little on edge but after dinner we were tinkering around outside. The weather was perfect, the kids were playing some around the yard as Dave and I did a few chores. The long days of summer are gone so it was getting really dark as we were getting ready to come inside but then Skye wanted to look at the stars so we all laid down on the grass. Jade came over and sat her little self right on top of me and then laid there so still, just looking up at the star, her little body pressed against mine just letting me hold her. Skye was talking quietly about making wishes, and drawing pictures in the sky with her finger. I took a few deep breaths and savored the moment, it really was magic.
