Pretty right?
I mean, I ALMOST didn't get to see this beautiful sight.
Why?
Because "F" running. I mean, shit. I'm just a mom that wants to sleep. But nooooo, I have a kid I need to hustle out the door to get to school on time. And another kid who thinks 5 am is completely normal hour to wake up at for a human being.
But because I was up, I packed the jogging stroller and brought the blanket for the little guy to stay warm in while I tried to mentally prepare myself for this stupid ass run.
And let me tell ya, I was cussing the whole way in my head.
"Damn you shoelaces."
"Why do I need to do this shit?"
"Why are my flipping leggings sliding down my waist?! There's plenty of flab there to hold them up?!"
"Fuck it, skinny is overrated."
And then this happened.
It was chilly, but it was muggy. The sun was peeking over the tress and the sun rays were just glistening.
I literally stopped on the trail. Mouth wide open. The only sound I hear was my little guy just munching on his crackers.
It was beautiful.
It reminded me that today is a gift. Not everyone gets a today. Make it the best today ever, because no one is guaranteed a tomorrow.
