This morning’s sunrise can only be described as thrilling.
The sunrise reflected off of the snow, creating a pink glow that brought the heavens down to earth. It was like a Valentine’s Day gift from God Himself.
Six years ago today, I received an even more amazing gift : Micah, who arrived after a mere 45 minute labor.
Eager to get out of bed on his birthday, Micah was awake with the sun.
He was peeking out the window when I came in to check on him.
“Did you see the sun, Mom?”
“Yes!” I said, camera already in hand. “I’m going to go catch it for you so you can save it forever!”

As a reward for correctly reading his Alpha Phonics lesson, Micah asked if he could listen to Gorillaz on Last.Fm.
I think so :)
Dancing? Optional.
What rewards do your kids ask for that make you smile?
