“Instructions for living a life:
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.”
Today is Brady’s 5th Birthday! As I think of the person he is, I cannot help but think of this quote from Mary Oliver. Brady pays attention to life, to others, and to his surroundings. When things amaze him, he gets really excited and then he eagerly shares about it. His joy and enthusiasm for life are infectious.
I am deeply grateful for him. Sharing life with this little man is a gift! I have no doubt I am a better woman because of loving him and learning from him.
Happy Birthday, Brady! I love you!
