Today..

Today…

Outside my window…is dark out. I am writing this at 5AM and I am using all of my willpower not to go crawl back into bed and sleep again. (Came down with a bad case of the flu once we landed back in Manila yesterday).

I am thinking…about work, my health, my kids, how incredibly blessed we are right now, the challenge I am willing to step up to and take. And oh, the credit card charges we are going to face next month with all the shopping we made. Ha!

I am thankful for…SO MANY things. The inspiring trip, the opportunity to serve again, how I love serving with my family, how much I love my husband and my kids – at this point, my heart if overflowing with so many good things and I really do not want it to fade away because I get distracted so easily with useless things.

From the kitchen…haven’t had breakfast yet. But I am sure it will be awesome. We are staying at my parents’ place for the weekend.

I am wearing…jammies.

I am creating…nothing. Slowly going to ease into creating again.

I am going…to need a vacation from this vacation. Maybe a vacation by the pool and laying on Adirondack chairs for the rest of the day? *Wishful thinking*

I am reading…journals.

I am hoping…to be well enough to start working normally by Monday! To accomplish this I need to stay in bed!

I am hearing…the electric fan roaring.

Around the house…everybody is sleeping.

One of my favorite things…my iPhone.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Slowly exercise.

A picture I love:
My brothers and sisters-in-law when we were in Singapore.

Aggie Aviso describes herself as her family’s storyteller and memory keeper. A mom to two kids ages 14 and 8, she is certainly past the age of sleepless nights and adorable pigtails. However, motherhood stays exciting, more meaningful and yes, more challenging. She takes it all in stride, knowing fully well that moments pass by in a blink of an eye. As Gretchen Rubin famously said, “The days are long, but the years are short.” She has discovered how wonderful it is to have those fleeting moments in time documented in their family books and has made it her personal mission and passion to be able to tell their stories for her future grandkids.
