It’s so easy to get caught up in our every day routine and stress brought on by our job, school, family and etc. We often take a lot of things for granted. We should realize that a lot of the simple things in life are the ones that brings us the most joy.
Lately when I find myself complaining about school work, wedding planning, job situation and etc, I make a conscious effort to stop and realize that I have a lot of things to be grateful for.
I recently discovered Julie’s blog Savvy Eat. I love her Little Things series, where she honors details that makes her happy. She encourages everyone to stop and appreciate the little things. She even has The Little Things: Reader Submissions page.
I appreciate the little things like spending time with my 3 year old niece Jazzy. I love spending time with her because when I am with her all my stress seems to go away and she reminds me to be carefree and enjoy the little things in life.
Kids are worry free and just live in the moment. They don’t worry about the past or the future, they live in the present.
In her smile, her cute cheeks and adorable dimple, she teaches me how life should be.
Don’t forget to appreciate the little things in life.

Very true words!! Lovely post!
Lea, you are so beautiful and you two look adorable!
This is so very true! Looks like you have some up and coming competition in the beauty department. 😉
Jazzy is just adorable! ADORABLE! 🙂
You are so right! My grandmother has been in the hospital lately fighting for her life I received RIF letters from the School District although I’m being transferred and I didn’t lose my job I’m so grateful life is wonderful.
I may lose a family member, a job, a friend but there will be a day that I will see them again and I have one thing that God has blessed us with it’s Memories.
I can still reflect on good times even when you might feel sad you know it’s for a moment.
Thank you for this I certainly am grateful for the little things in life.

I hear ya!! Im telling you, I think Jazzy is your daughter. Maybe you just forgot about being pregnant and the terrible pain of delivering her. You never know. 😉 Love your post!
Couldn’t agree more! We often tend to forget to just be in the present.. although it’s actually the most simple thing to do.
It was a lovely weekend. I’m so glad we made time to get together and celebrate all the life changing events going on. I’m so happy for you ladies.
I was having a rough afternoon today, but reading your post about the Little Things made me smile…and that is why I do the series. Thank you for your post!
Such a good reminder to remember the little things AND enjoy them.
Such beautiful pictures of you two!
