Beeps, Buzzes, and Babies -

I am sure many of you are familar with the buzz of the alarm, or the beep of the text messages recieved.  I even have a coffee pot that beeps at my 4 times to let me know it is going to brew my fuel.  My eliptical also offers 3 beeps of encouragement before I start my training.  These are some of the noises that guide me through the first part of my day.  They are the sounds that encourage me rise out of bed before the crack of dawn for early morning sprints.   Or the indicator that the coffee has perculated to perfection so I can have a few minutes with a cup of joe in front of the laptop for some creative writing. 

But it is the sounds of my babies that truly dictate my time.  The small movements that rustle the sheets as they stretch in their beds before waking.  The heavy breathing as Addie attempts to wake fully.  The rush of Tori's legs as she makes for the potty, slamming the bathroom door behind her.  Rainier's happy jingling collar tags hitting his silver bowl each time he laps up water.  And my all time favorite sounds that makes me jump to the ready is, "mommy."  What a beautiful way to start my day!
