Often in the heat of the moment, we tend to make little things into big ones. We take a slight aggravation or worry and work it into something that it is not - i.e., important. I'm like you - or is it, you're like me. We have to take time to appreciate the little things - like watching Tyler try to eat tomato soup by himself.
