Taking a MOMENT to notice....

....we have all been there.

walking around in a fog...

 going through the motions.

...just getting through the day, the week, the month, even THE YEAR for some.

numb. un-motivated - not really taking notice of anything.

....it's so typical of people at certain times in life.

actually

said it before - will say it again....

my opinion is 

you shut down to grow

babies grow when they sleep

our souls grow when we go numb for a bit.

we heal.

THAT is a beautiful thing. 

because

when we wake up again.

we TAKE notice.

...and everything seems a little bit more joyful, a little more interesting and just plain funny in some cases.

when you consciously take a moment to notice

perhaps you will find it as entertaining as I did today.

walking around unity i made the decision to notice what i had not noticed...fun stuff.

I walk by this EVERY DAY - not noticing.

This NEST has been in the bush right by the Unity door all winter....NOPE, did NOT NOTICE

Brooke has these adorable magnets on the side of her desk - a gift from her kiddos - NOTICED THEM TODAY!

Michelle was given a GLOAT BUTTON as a SECRET SANTA GIFT for Christmas? 

DID NOT NOTICE it TILL TODAY - ...and it will NOW be put to USE!

I open this fridge every day and grab MY FRENCH VANILLA CREAMER - DID NOT notice everyone else's

 {unless, of course, mine is GONE - HA!} 

Tommy T's Motorcycle?!  

Where did that come from?

I DID notice I was missing a WINE GLASS from my home -

 however....

DID NOT notice till today it was on the shipping desk at Unity with a CANDLE IN IT!  

HOW in the world did that happen? 

These two adorable little pals have been sitting in Chris's office for MONTHS did NOT NOTICE the button....I will leave it at that.

Thanks Lindsay Spencer {Unity Artist} for this guys little girlfriend!

 THESE GUYS wish I HAD NOT noticed these pink pigtails we brought home from CHA last year, BUT I DID 

.....and they were sports enough to put them on for me today!

....and the BROOM DUSTPAN words are HUGE - HOW in the WORLD did I not notice THAT?

The bathroom is RIGHT NEXT to this, NOPE walked by it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

....not to mention Mr. "I AM DUSTPAN"
