Baby things...

Okay this is not really a proper blog entry, but I got a little bit excited over the vests that Gaby sent me earlier and decided to take some pictures of my small collection of baby things.

Not sure if anyone is interested or not... but this is the link :)

Can't wait to get seriously into the shopping - knowing me I will buy way to many clothes, and baby will grow out of them before s/he's had a chance to wear them! lol

Small Things...

 

We were having a conversation at work the other day about being happy. When we are kids the smallest things light up our day - remember when you could play in a cardboard box for hours... Flying through space one minute, under water the next. If only life could be this simple now?

Well you know what I decided if you want it to be it really can … everyone gets caught up in a situation, a moment, where right then and there it’s the only thing that matters. You’re fighting with someone over something, getting yourself all worked up - but ask your self this. Is it important? In the grand scheme of things does it matter? The answer is probably NO! Or at least that is what I have been finding lately.

Over the last few weeks, or maybe longer - it’s all become a blur I’ve been fighting a constant battle, partly with myself - partly with others trying to make them realise that these little things are pointless. Life is so much bigger than who’s reading something you wrote, whether you told someone something the second you knew. At least to me it is, but maybe that’s because recently I have gained the life experience to realise this. I seriously want to take a step into some peoples world and pop the bubble that they are living in… or actually live there with them for a while. When the most important thing to them is whether they should talk to a boy or not, whether they should have ham or cheese on their sandwiches?!

My priorities in life have changed greatly… even before my amazing news, it’s not just this baby that is changing my life. It’s everything that I have been through this year - at times I thought it couldn’t get any worse. Putting a smile on my face and holding my head high I ploughed forward, taking each day at a time, and being happy. Making my life happy.

At the end of the day we only have one life…so stop looking backward, stop making everything into a big deal, stop worrying, stressing and making yourself miserable. Smile and enjoy life…take the time to lay on the grass, laugh with friends, read that book or watch that film you’ve always wanted to see….

The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes along the way
