Enjoying the moment

I was talking to a friend about this just recently about living in the now, enjoying now. Well I had one of those moments this morning. One that I wanted to record and file away in my memory to never forget. It's funny how in the past I may have taken these moments for granted, and now I just want to remember everything.
It is our first Saturday at home in a long time, and this morning we played a little Micah hide and seek as a family. It was wonderful. Micah would tell us whose turn it was to count and then the other two would go hide. Sometimes it was Micah counting..and Albert and I hiding. That was always too funny. Micah would walk around yelling "Mommy? Daddy?" over and over until he would find one of us. But whenever he found us, it wasn't a big surprise or anything, he'd say "there you are mommy" like it was no big deal, he knew where we were the whole time. He was pretty good at finding us too, he found me hiding behind the shower curtain in the bathtub...I thought that was impressive! Once he found one of us, we'd go together to find the other. It was so cute.  Micah started picking out some pretty good hiding spots too. He hid behind his laundry basket in his room, behind the rocking chair, on the far side of the toilet. He's getting pretty good, but his downfall is that he can't contain his excitement! He tends to get excited about his good hiding spot and then laughs! It's super cute! I love it! Such pure joy that comes from playing hide and seek. I think we played for an hour and a half. What a wonderful way to spend a rainy Saturday morning :)
