"The Sweetest Memories Are Often the Simplest" Today, I did something small but meaningful—I picked up ice cream and root beer from the store, just the essentials for one of our family’s favorite traditions: root beer floats. For us, this isn’t just a dessert. It’s a rite of passage, a cherished memory that ties generations together. As I stood in the kitchen assembling those frothy, fizzy floats, I couldn’t help but think about the beauty of moments like this. The simple act of pouring root beer over vanilla ice cream becomes so much more—it’s joy bubbling over, laughter filling the room, and sticky hands grabbing for straws. My kids might not remember this exact day. They might not recall their first root beer float or the way their eyes lit up with excitement. But I will. I’ll remember the sound of their giggles, the way they leaned over the counter to watch the ice cream melt into the root beer, and how their happiness filled the air like sunshine. And that’s the thing about creating memories—they’re often more for us than for them. One day, they’ll grow up and maybe share this tradition with their own families. They’ll pass down the laughter, the sweetness, and the love that started here, in this simple moment. So, here’s my encouragement to you: take the time to create memories with the people you love, even if you’re the only one who holds onto them. Life isn’t measured by extravagant events or expensive things; it’s in the small, meaningful moments that make you pause and realize, this is what matters. Go make those memories today. Scoop the ice cream, pour the root beer, or do whatever brings your loved ones together. Because even the simplest moments can leave the deepest impact.
