15 minutes of perfection...

Ben quietly sleeping in his bed, Emily asleep in my arms with her sweet head on my shoulder and the sound of Luke's giggles as he chases the neighbor boy around the yard with his squirt gun. The air is fresh and the breeze smells like flowers. It was perfect, truly, for 15 minutes. then Ben woke up crying and Luke ran in the road and Emi startled at my call to Luke... but I don't mind. I'm going to just think about those 15 minutes for the rest of the day.
