Same song a little bit faster and a little bit louder

Wake up, shower, feed Iris in the dawn's early light and cuddle her as long as possible.
A lone candle on the table acts as a peaceful blanket around sleepy children.
The Ink Spots playing softly is fun and is not kids music. Thank God.
Oatmeal with brown sugar and cinnamon. Simple made sophisticated
A brisk walk in the fresh air to the bus stop.

A long snuggle with Iris, rocking her to sleep then kissing her cheeks and just watching her breath. Kissing each finger tip.

Mathew 25:23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

And that really is how I feel. Thanksful and joyful to be here right now.
