it's so easy to get caught up in the craziness that is our lives.

there is always something to do...

somewhere to be...

new things to create...

it's so easy to forget that sometimes we just need to stop...

to enjoy the moment we are in...

and just breathe...

so yesterday,

 when pulling into my parent's driveway

i glanced to my left and noticed the tree in the front yard...

it was gorgeous.

so i smiled...

closed my eyes...

and took a deep breath...

and remembered how easy it is...

to enjoy the simple things:)
