Last Sunday, our eyes opened to a peaceful morning full of promise. Mine were the first to open, well before the kids stirred. As I stepped into the shower, my ears caught the sound of the phone ringing, but it was my wife’s sleepy eyes that remained shut as she reached to silence it.
When I returned, my eyes met hers, and I gently asked her to wake up and help prepare a surprise picnic. Her eyes lit up instantly, sparkling with excitement. She woke the kids, her gaze full of joy, and they all began choosing clothes and packing fruits and snacks into a bucket.
I watched them through grateful eyes as they moved with cheerful energy. Once everything was ready, my wife looked at me with warm, trusting eyes and said, “Drive safely.”
That day, the journey we shared wasn’t just one of the happiest trips this year—it was a beautiful memory, seen through the eyes of love and togetherness.
