Little Piece of Heaven

I was laying in bed last night thinking about the day, saying a prayer, and thanking the Lord for so many blessings that I sometimes take for granted. Saying "thank you" for moments that make me feel so complete, make me feel so much love that I just don't know what to do with. I strongly believe that is the kind of love that God has for all of us. One moment, in particular, I just have to share.

Everyday, Reese takes several naps throughout the day and, as long as she gets enough sleep, she wakes up talking and cooing with sounds that are so precious, they will just melt your heart. Well, yesterday, while she was asleep, I was in the living room trying to take care of a few things and I hear her sweet voice in the bedroom. I walked back and peeked over her crib to see her beautiful eyes wide open and the blanket was pulled all the way up to her nose. I uncovered her little face and she lit up. She smiled a big gummy grin with squinted eyes and all. I melted. It was like an angel was smiling back at me...a little piece of heaven.
