Treasure Moments

"But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart." -Luke 2:19

I once heard it said, "Potential treasure is hidden inside every chaotic situation". If that is the case, I believe life is filled with special treasure moments. Some are just a little more difficult to uncover than others. It takes time to discover and really ponder each treasure of our day. There are so many moments we miss, simply because our schedules are filled to the limit and running over. A very wise older lady once told me, "You never get these days back. Take time to treasure every minute." This prompted an idea with me. I will begin recording every treasure moment that comes my way in a journal and take time to reflect on those moments...treasure them...allow them to penetrate deep into my heart. I would love for you to join me on this journey. Share your "treasure moments". Just yesterday, Garyn woke up extra early from nap. What normally would have been an inconvenience to this very busy agenda minded Mom, suddenly became a "treasure moment". We rocked, we cuddled, we laughed...(I mean really laughed hard) One of those down to the pit of your stomach laughs. I realized, the giggle of a soon to be 3 year old is so contagious! I don't want to miss these moments...that special note left beside my coffee pot each morning from my pre-teen daughter...that very quick hug and kiss as my teenage boy rushes off to school. Those irreplaceable "treasure moments". What are those moments to you?
