As I sit here reflecting on the day I just had, I can't help but feel like one of the luckiest people in the world tonight.
I treasure my days off from work. My job isn't a Monday through Friday 9-5 career. My days off come randomly throughout the week. And they typically don't come in pairs, except for the one weekend off a month.
So when I do have a day off, I try to make the most of it that I can.
Today started with a workout followed by a hike with a dear friend. After which, I hurried over to see my sister, brother in law, niece, and her brand new baby sister!
My older sister had her second child a week ago and it is just amazing to me how much my heart has expanded for this little one.
First, I am so proud of my sister, for being such an amazing mother and for being such a great big sister to me. Her love for those around her has always inspired me.
Secondly, I am so blessed to be an aunt to two amazing girls. Spending time with these two, makes every worry, concern, sadness, just melt away until there is nothing but love and happiness filling my heart.
It's one of the greatest joys in my life...being able to be their aunt. And I have my big sister and brother in law to thank for that.
