Perfect Moments

Because AIM is being lame and won't let me sign on and I just noticed that Kel had done this too. ;)

I realize a lot of people have problems with the word 'perfection'. This is most likely because it is often associated with an intangible thing. But for me, I can't help but smile when I hear the word. I don't think about those glossy magazine covers with flawless smiles and digitally retouched everythings; I think of the time I first held my perfect niece Emma in my arms, the way tears immediately pricked the back of my eyes upon doing so, and the way my heart swelled so much it gave that good kind of hurt. I don't think we are limited to a certain amount of perfect moments--I think we experience them every day, it's just some are more obvious than others.

I remember one Saturday in college Ashley and I spent the entire day in our room watching Grey's Anatomy.

I remember riding that monorail with Kel and us realizing that we had the same sandals on.

I remember seeing Mat Kearney in concert and recognizing 'Crashing Down' not even 5 chords into it.

I remember The first 45 minutes of the 2007 MLS cup, being there in person with my father and truly believing that they were going to win it all

I remember my first New Years Eve in New York City with Sarah and Melanie and experiencing a world I didn't think really existed off of paper.

I remember waking up at 4 in the morning and taking the T into Boston so we could get front row seats at the Red Sox World Series parade.

Those are just a few of thousands of moments that I place under the category of perfection.
