Simple Pleasures in Life

About the joys of small children in a mother's eyes

Sounds of pitter-pattering of little feet;
Handprints on the patio door or the bathroom mirror;
Messy faces at mealtime;
Giggles exchanged during play;
Eyes closed, peacefully sleeping;
Sleeping as the moonlight peeks in during the night;
What seems like a lifetime is only an illusion;
Like the sand in an hourglass.
