don't cry over spilt milk


Many times I find myself in an instance where I'm juggling a few things in my arms and trying to get tasks finished.
Life gets a little chaotic and something goes wrong (notice my picture above)
and I start to find frustration and anger taking over my mood.
Then I hear a little voice behind me say "uh oh" in the sweetest little tone that reminds me to smile and to not be so flustered by the small mishaps that don't go as planned.

I love these little moments.
I may be the parent but I'm certainly not the only one being the example.
