It Takes But a Moment

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away! ~ Hilary Cooper

I truly believe this. These moments don't have to cost a fortune, in the least. It takes just a bit of time, some imagination, and knowing a little bit about the person you want to create a moment for.  

Last week I created a snowflake themed tea party for some of my friends. Within the fold of their crisp white linen napkin I placed a fun quote about snow (ie: When it snows, you have two choices:  shovel or make snow angels.) and then I wrote a personal note to each of them, letting them know who they are to me. Watching their faces as they each read their snow quotes and then my personal thank you for what they bring to my life, was priceless.  

Within a big event like a wedding or baby shower it's wonderful to find those little moments not just for the bride and groom or mommy-to-be to feel the specialness of the day but you can even have your guests partake in breath-taking moments.
