Inspired by Raffi


This morning the kids and I were doing some crafts. I am throwing a baby shower with a friend and was trying to make the invitations while the kids were cutting and gluing. We were listening to Raffi on Pandora Radio and singing along, as we usually do.
Adelle asked me, "how is the baby going to take a shower?" She is so literal sometimes. Like last night when my mom took her to mini cheer camp and she asked my mom, "when they were getting in the tents?" (like to camp). Anyway, that's a side note, and could probably be another post that I don't see myself getting to anytime soon.
So this Raffi song came on and I liked it. It was the simple truth I needed to hear today. The first verse is this:

All I really need is a song in my heart
Food in my belly and love in my family
All I really need is a song in my heart
And love in my family

So today I decided to be content with all that I have. It really is all that I need.

And with that, we bundled up and ventured out into the beautiful day. 

Thanks Raffi. You're just as wonderful as I remember you being.

Jess, I think that all sounds really familiar but my memory is unfortunately not good at all. On the same side I wouldn't have put it past my mom to take us! I am going to ask her.
