It's 1pm at my house.
The two babies are snoozing to the hum of
the dishwasher, the dryer, the washing machine,
and Sesame Street (downstairs entertaining the anti-nap preschooler)
I wouldn't mind zoning out
with a little SS myself
but I've got other things on my To Do list
newborn shoot edits,
Thank You notes,
calendaring,
budget listing,
grocery-list writing,
package preparing,
and my newest time consumer...
browsing local MLS listings
to find the best bang for our buck.
In the middle of
what feels like
a very crazy week
I definitely need to sit down
and sip on a tall glass of gratitude.
I'm Thankful For:
-a fantastic first family 5k adventure last Saturday
-lovely sunshine & outside play with my 3 monkeys (littlest monkey enjoys quilt time under the shade tree)
-rainy afternoons, evenings, and mornings (I love a good rain)
-shelter from the storms
-a yard for the sunny days
-a night out w/some girlfriends
-safe travel for Mr. H
-the opportunity to enjoy preschooling with J and 3 of his little friends & their Mamas (only 2 more weeks left!)
-a zoo afternoon--bears fighting & otters snacking
-lazy days & library books
-moments of spiritual teaching
-reminders of who we really are
-generous & willing-to-help parents & in-laws
-cheese flavored options (tried rice cheese this week on homemade pizza--not too shabby)
-snuggles with my daughter (I still feel a burst of excitement when I see that word: daughter)
