What a night we had. A couple of months ago, our grand-daughter spent the night with us. Bailey figured out how to play fetch with one of our dogs Tessa. It was so cute watching her try to throw the toy. She would try as hard as she could and it would only go a foot or so. Tessa would go get it and as she brought it back to Bailey and me, Bailey would start jumping up and down saying, "My turn, my turn!" So she would pick it up from where Tessa dropped it and try to throw again. Sometimes she was laughing so hard she could not throw it. My husband and I thought before that night that Tessa would never run out of steam playing fetch, but that night Bailey out lasted Tessa. In fact Tessa hid her toy, so Bailey and I turned to another activity, bubbles.
As you can see in the picture, I ran a sink full of warm water and bubbles. Bailey could not get enough of blowing them and making towers of them and putting them on my nose and hair. Her smile was so worth all the mess and water.
We try so much of our lives to find things that make us happy, when so often if we would just look at the little things and enjoy them.
How many times in our lives do we get upset or bent out of shape at something that, even a few days from now, will not matter?
Take time to blow the bubbles!
