Enjoying the little things

Today I had a family reunion, I was able to see many family members that I haven't seen in a while. It was good just being able to catch up and enjoy the company of family. Everybody is just so busy now days that we never really get to see all the family members that we would like.

So at events like family reunions, you have to take advantage of the little time you are given with them and enjoy the little things, like hearing childhood stories from my grandpaw or looking at old pictures and see how times really have changed.

Today I also was able to go watch my five year old niece play her first tee-ball game. It was great seeing her have so much fun playing something I loved to play. Seeing her, hit, run, catch, throw, and not pay attention to the game most of the time, but I guess that's what you get when a five year old is forced to stand in one spot for a long time.

We all need to just take time out and really enjoy the little things that make us happy, even if we don't realize it.
