Sweet Moments

Last night as I meandered out of bed and into Angel's room to rock her back to sleep...I experienced a very sweet and humbling moment. Angel was laying on my daily enlarging belly and had her head on my shoulders. All of a sudden, the baby started kicking like crazy. Angel kept squirming and repositioning herself on my lap. I just enjoyed these sweet moments of precious little lives. It was almost as if the two sisters were already either communicating to each other or striving for their own personal time with mom. I felt so honored and humbled to have two little ones so close to me and at that moment I completely forgot how tired I was...life is so precious and they stay little for such a short time I need to soak up all these sweet moments I can get.

Strawberry Shortcake...

I made this this past weekend...and it is too yummy not to share. It is an old recipe from my Mamasan...and tastes so good with fresh strawberries and in the summer. Click on picture to get recipe. Enjoy.
